That makes sense.  You can't finish your activation until you receive the physical SiM card in the mail.  Your plan should not "start" the 30 day cycle until you input the SIM card number from the Physical Sim card.  

It can take up to 10 business days for physical SiM cards to arrive.

Hmmm, that is strange, my friend have an Samsung A13 and he had no issues downloading the app. 
Did you try searching on the Google Play store for the Public Mobile app?

Is the OS up to date on your Android phone? Some older phones won’t download the PM app.

What is the make and model of your phone?

@mickey78 

Sorry, I am a bit confused.  Please review your situation from the beginning.  Are you a new customer activating a new phone line?  Or are you an existing customer just trying to move your plan to new phone?  More details the better.

Do you have an android or iPhone?  You should able to directly go to App store (IOS) or Google play (android) to download the PM app.

physical SIM card?

@mickey78 

Did you activate an eSIM or physical SIM card?

If eSIM, did you receive an email with the QR code?

Here is some more information:

Did you first activate your PM plan on the website first?  If so, you will need to download the PM app on your phone to finish the activation process.
