# Run Garnet Alongside Amethyst with App Cloner
Want to try out Garnet without uninstalling Amethyst? Follow this simple guide to install Garnet using App Cloner.
**What is Garnet?**

Download the **app-mainnet-fdroid-universal-release.apk** file.
**Step 3: Clone the App**
Open App Cloner and follow these steps:
* Select **APK files** and tap the **+** button.
* Choose **From a file** and select the **app-mainnet-fdroid-universal-release.apk** file from your downloads folder.
* Tap the 🧬 button and confirm any dialogs that appear. Wait for the cloning process to complete.
