What is Helio?

Helio is a mobile Solana explorer and wallet built with React Native. No single mobile app combines address lookup, token details with live market data, token swaps, and SOL transfers in one cohesive experience — Helio does.

Features

• Search any Solana wallet — balances, tokens, transaction history
• Token details — live market data from DexScreener, metadata, social links
• Swap tokens via Jupiter — live quotes, slippage control, swap history
• Send SOL to any address
• Watchlist & search history with offline persistence
• Mainnet + Devnet with custom RPC support
• Dark/light theme

Try It Out

Grab the latest APK from GitHub Releases and install it on any Android device. You'll need a Solana wallet app (Phantom/Solflare) installed for wallet features.

Remember (Trying Features): To see token metadata on devnet, add a Helius devnet RPC URL in Settings. Add a mainnet RPC URL from any provider (QuickNode, Alchemy, etc.) for better performance.

Getting Started

The section below is for developers who want to build from source.

Requirements

• Node.js 18+
• Bun
• Android Studio or a physical Android device with USB debugging enabled
• A Solana mobile wallet (Phantom / Solflare) for wallet features

Note: This is a development build — it does NOT run on Expo Go.

Setup

git clone https://github.com/kitsunekode/helio.git
cd helio
bun install

Build and run:

bun expo prebuild
bun expo run:android

Remember (Development): In app Settings, add a Helius devnet RPC URL to enable token metadata on devnet. Add a mainnet RPC URL from any provider (QuickNode, Alchemy, etc.) for better runtime performance.
