When the Google Play Version Comes Out

The version on Google Play is signed differently, so it cannot install over the APK. Before you switch, export your chats in the app (Settings, Data), uninstall the APK, then install from Google Play and bring your chats back in.

Your PC as the Engine

On your home Wi-Fi the app connects to Locally Uncensored on your own PC, which does the compute. The desktop side is on the Remote Access page.
