Don’t know, it’s actually a Progressive Web App (PWA) so you just visit in your browser, and can save it to your Home Screen, and from then on the web-app-via-browser works just like an app, seems just like a “regular” app. I’m on iOS but assume it can work similarly on Android.
Try WefWef.App, it’s pretty great, quite reminiscent of Apollo: https://wefwef.app
There isn’t much to worry about. We made our instance at the same time as sh.itjust.works but didn’t get popular, and also had all the restrictions for account creation in place. So we barely have any users, run our own show and fly under all the radar.

You would save yourself time by making your own instance, and run it how you like. We did that, and thousands of other people have, too. It’s not hard.
