There are two ways to pre-install Genshin Impact 3.1 Update on mobile devices.

  • Game’s login screen: Another way to access the pre-installation function is by directly selecting “Pre-Install Resource Package” on the game’s login screen.

Please note: Unlike PC, you can’t play Genshin Impact while the pre-installation is in progress. On top of that, make sure that you are connected to stable internet for a swift installation.
