Runes — 24 Staves | Offline Android Rune Study & Journal

A private, offline companion for studying the 24 Elder Futhark runes, casting one or three runes, and keeping a personal reading journal on Android.

Explore the Elder Futhark on your own terms. **Runes — 24 Staves** brings together source-aware rune study, simple casting tools, and a local journal in one focused Android app.

**Study 24 runes.** Browse original copper-colored rune artwork and individual historical profiles. Evidence, reconstruction, and source limitations are identified separately from modern interpretive material.

**Cast and reflect.** Generate a one- or three-rune digital cast, or enter the runes you draw physically, in their original order. Follow your reading with personal notes.

**Keep your journal locally.** Save, reopen, edit, and delete readings. Export or import a versioned JSON backup when you choose. The app has no automatic cloud sync, so you remain responsible for preserving exported backups.

**Offline by design.** Normal study, casting, and journaling do not require an account, Google Play Services, or internet access. The signed APK requests no INTERNET permission.

### What's included

One signed Android APK, plus an installation guide, journal backup and recovery instructions, privacy and data notes, product rights and creation disclosures, and third-party software licenses, all inside one ZIP.

### Compatibility

Android 8.0 or later. Download the ZIP, extract the APK, and install it directly using Android's source-specific installation permission. This is **not** a Google Play download. No iOS or desktop version is included.

### Important about journal backups

Journal entries are stored on your device and are not automatically backed up or synced. Export a JSON backup to a safe location before uninstalling the app, clearing its data, or switching devices. Exported JSON may contain readable personal notes.
