Yah, I see it, but I couldn't find it on my play store.

The problem here now is that, I use a phone to browse not a computer. It is asking to install on desktop.
You can use the browser on your phone to go to https://steemitwallet.com and click "Keys & Permissions". If you only know your master key, then you have no choice but to use it to log into https://steemitwallet.com once. When the site reveals your other keys, write them down and store them carefully like you store your master key. You'll only have to do this once.
Always make sure you have spelled the URL correctly! Never log into any site that does not begin with https. You don't want any password ever to be sent over an unencrypted connection.
There are ways to generate your other keys from your master key offline but that requires installing certain programs on your desktop or your laptop. If you have neither, I guess you'll just have to do it online.
And please store all your keys in a safe place. If you lose your master key, it will be impossible to recover your account if you get hacked.

When you're done getting your active key, posting key and memo key from it by logging into it with your master key once, you should use your active key to manage your token transfers, power downs, power ups or anything else that has to do with money. You should only use your posting key to post (or to comment) and vote. Never log into any website with your master key. Keep it offline as much as possible unless you have to change your master key or any of the other keys.
Please take great care in storing all you keys offline in a safe place where you don't risk losing access to them or having someone unauthorized access them. If you don't have a computer and only have a phone available, I recommend that you check on Google Play (if you have an Android phone) for any apps for storing passwords in a safe way on your phone. I haven't checked but I think such apps most likely exist.
I use a password storing program on my laptop. I have copies of the encrypted password files stored on different physical devices just in case my laptop breaks down.
Storing ones keys on a single device, or worse, only in a browser is asking for trouble. A memory stick is a good storage medium for an encrypted password file as long as it is kept in a safe place. This topic is very much worth looking into.
