Hello Quentin and Steve,

Quentin is right. The app did not come pre-installed on my phone.

I have seen the app in the playstore, but the page says my device isn't
supported. I even ignored that message and went ahead to click on the
install button and my device wasn't displayed; the store informed me that
there was no eligible device to install the app on.

thank you guys for the help.
