HTTP mode is not yet available in our Android version; it's iOS only at the moment, but we hope to have HTTP mode on Android soon.

I see it referenced in the commits [0], so I assume documentation is ahead of the published version.

Indeed. As it says, I'm preparing HTTP mode for Android at the moment.

Sorry about that! I mistakenly assumed the settings UI would be the same between Android and iOS. I don't have an Android device handy, but will try to hunt one down and get the instructions updated.
"Step 2: Configure the app
Tap the i icon in the top left and tap "Settings". In the URL field, enter:"
But there is no "i" icon and no Settings tap. There is a menu button and in the preferences I can choose a mode between public, hosted and private.
I tried to use the supplied URL in the Host setting, but the Owntracks app complains that the settings are incomplete.
Any help appreciated.
