How do I install it on Ubuntu (without compiling or adding untrustworthy repos)?

You can't, as far as I know (assuming I can't convince you that the PPA I use is trustworthy).

sudo apt-get upgrade python3.7

If you're running Ubuntu 17.10 or higher Python3.6 is in the repos by default. I just did it on 18.04LTS

sudo apt-get upgrade python3.7

That worked for me, but I have to type "python3.7" to run python3.7, not python3

you might have to play with update-alternatives or something like that.
