The Android operating system doesn't allow you to download any apps outside the Play Store by default. However, you can still manage and download certain applications on an Android device without using Google Play. It is important to be cautious when downloading applications from sources other than the official Android markets, such as Google Play and the Amazon Appstore. For example, WhatsApp provides its own direct download page that can be accessed on a desktop computer and then transferred to your phone or directly downloaded to your device from your phone's browser (by requesting the desktop site from the browser settings).If you don't want to use Google Play Store, you can access the Galaxy Store and download your favorite apps without having to install one.
The APK may be saved in your smartphone's downloads folder, which you can activate yourself, as long as you haven't been asked to install the application. With a few taps, a few configuration settings, and a third-party game store, you'll have just what you need to download apps without Google Play. It is recommended to revoke permissions after installing a third-party application so that additional applications are not installed without your knowledge. One of the advantages of using a third-party app store on Android is that certain apps don't meet Google Play's terms and requirements, but that doesn't mean they're risky or dangerous. As long as the device has enough RAM and internal storage to run the secondary application, there should be no problem.
Additionally, APKs provide the ability to find older, much smaller, and more resource-efficient versions of applications that have an exaggerated size and hardware requirements in current versions without a very serious improvement.
