1. Unlock Gestu Pro in four steps

  1. 01

    Install the latest Gestu APK

    Make sure you have the latest Gestu release installed on your Android device (Android 8.0+). If you haven't installed it yet, grab it from gestu.ca/download.

  2. 02

    Open Settings → Gestu Pro

    Open Gestu, tap the Settings icon in the top navigation bar, and select the Gestu Pro section at the top of Settings.

  3. 03

    Paste your activation code & tick the cloud data-processing disclosure

    Copy the GESTU-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX code from your Welcome page or confirmation email and paste it into the Activation Code field. Then tick the disclosure checkbox confirming you understand that Gestu Pro cloud prompts are sent to pro.gestu.ca and processed by DeepSeek.

  4. 04

    Tap Activate

    Ensure you are connected to Wi-Fi or mobile data and tap Activate. Gestu contacts entitlements.gestu.ca to verify your code and stores an ephemeral virtual key in Android Keystore-backed encrypted preferences (AES256_GCM). DeepSeek V4.1 Flash cloud AI and all Pro features are now unlocked.

2. How the device seat works

Every Gestu Pro subscription includes one active Android device seat — your phone.

  • Moving to a new phone: Activate the code on the new device. If the old device has been inactive for 14 days or more, its seat is released automatically and the new device takes it.
  • App uninstall & reinstall: Gestu does not use a Google account or hardware serial, so a seat is tied to a random install ID. A reinstall creates a new ID; if the old seat is still held, email support to release it.
  • Immediate reset: If the old device was active within the last 14 days and you need the seat now, email support@gestu.ca from your checkout address and we will clear it.

3. Managed cloud processing & Total Privacy Mode

When you use the included Gestu Pro cloud brain (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash), your prompts are sent over TLS to pro.gestu.ca and processed by DeepSeek without logging prompt or response bodies.

Using Total Privacy Mode: Inside Settings → Privacy, you can toggle on Total Privacy Mode at any time. When Total Privacy Mode is enabled, Gestu blocks all outbound network requests in app code — meaning Gestu Pro cloud inference and external BYOK providers are paused, and only local on-device Gemma / LiteRT models and local Sherpa-ONNX voices run. Turn Total Privacy Mode off whenever you want to use Gestu Pro cloud AI again.

4. Troubleshooting common messages

Activate button is disabled

Check that your code matches GESTU-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX and that you ticked the cloud data-processing disclosure checkbox directly above the Activate button.

Error: invalid_token

Verify you copied the full code starting with GESTU- from your confirmation email and that Total Privacy Mode is turned off during activation.

Error: device_limit

Your seat is held by another device. If that device is lost, replaced, or was active within the last 14 days, email support@gestu.ca and we will release it. A device idle for 14+ days is replaced automatically on the next activation.

Reduced mode notice

If you reach the monthly soft cap (~2,500 typical turns / 25M tokens), cloud requests shift to reduced mode (4,096 context) until the 1st of the next month while local models and BYOK stay unlimited.
