So, if you installed a malicious app from outside of the Play Store or if a malicious app made its way into the Play Store then that application could download and install apps in the background without you even knowing.
With this new process though, you have to manually enable which apps can install an APK file from outside of the Play Store. This way, even if you did install a malicious application then you would be safe from it installing other APK files without your permission. This changes things up entirely if you have granted said malicious app root access. But you should be very careful about which apps you are granting root access to in the first place. You can find the older method of sideloading an Android APK file down below.
After you have downloaded your Android APK file, you can follow these instructions to learn how to manually sideload that application on your device. Last week I wrote up a guide that walked you through what the Unknown Sources feature was, and how to toggle it on.
I did this because I wanted to have a tutorial that talked about manually installing an Android application. Most apps and games should be downloaded and installed from the Play Store, but there are instances when it can benefit you to sideload that application or game by yourself. And manually installing something is one of those things you should know how to do. These websites go out of their way to make sure applications have not been tampered with.
Using unreputable websites can result in your phone or tablet getting infected with malware, which can result in personal data like photos, videos, passwords and bank details being stolen from your device. Once you have the Android application APK file downloaded, and Unknown Sources is enabled, you can then launch the file explorer application of your choice.
I recommend Solid Explorer, but another popular option is File Commander both of these are shown in the embedded video above. With the File Explorer application open, you can then browse to where you have downloaded this Android application APK file, and then simply tap on it to launch it. Android knows that APK files are applications that need to be installed, so it should automatically pop up the installer service. An application like Solid Explorer will prompt you before hand, and ask if you really want to launch it with the Package Installer.
So from here, simply tap on the Install button at the bottom right, wait for the application to be installed, and then tap on the Done button again, located at the bottom right. With that done, you can tap on the Home button to go back to the Home Screen and you should see your application here. Have installed many from major sites like apkmirror. Tks to this post, I learn st new. Tks again. Does anybody know if that is true?
