How to Install Apps on Android without Google Play Store

One of the more sensible security features on Android devices is that you’re not allowed to install apps from outside the Play Store. Not by default, anyway. But seeing as there are plenty of great apps you can find outside the Play Store, you may want to venture beyond those walls every now and then.
Luckily, it’s fairly easy to install apps from unknown sources in Android, although the method varies depending on which Android version you’re on. One rule applies for people using Android 7 and below, and another for Android 8.0 Oreo and Android 9.0 Pie (and onwards). Here we’ll show you both ways.

Install Apps without Play Store in Android 8.0 Oreo and 9.0 Pie

As of Android 8.0, the method to install apps from unknown sources changed. Instead of the previous method where you gave permission to download APKs through any existing app on your phone, this version forced you to give permission to specific apps that are allowed to install APKs from unknown sources.
To set these permissions, go to “Settings -> Apps & notifications -> Advanced -> Special app access -> Install unknown apps.”
Here, select the app (usually your Internet browser) that you want to grant permission to install from unknown sources. Then once you’ve tapped it, tap “Allow from this source” to enable unknown sources for that specific app.

Install Apps without Play Store in Android 7.0 Nougat and Older

App packages for Android are packaged in APK files which can also be downloaded from outside the Play Store (such as through your web browser). Before attempting to install APK files, however, you must first allow your phone to install from “Unknown Sources” (i.e. non-Play Store apps).
To do this, navigate to “Settings -> Security,” and check the box marked “Unknown Sources,” then tap “OK’ and “Trust.”

Find APKs Outside Google Play Store

Once you’ve enabled unknown sources, it’s time to download the APKs you want. Maybe you already have a site you trust for downloading APKs. If not, we recommend APKMirror as a good place to find legal APKs of old versions of Play Store apps, free apps, and so on.
