Where To Download Android Apps Without Using Google Playstore by Sodia(m): 10:37am On Aug 17, 2017
There are many reasons why we may not want to use Google Playstore when searching for and Android application or when you want to do an android application.


Major reasons why this occurs include:

Google Playstore app malfunctioning on your device

Old version of Google Playstore and requires update

Not having Google Playstore installed

Google Playstore not compatible on device

Due to some of this reasons above many have not been able to install Android applications and because of this might have to resort to asking someone to send the application to you via various means such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Xender, Whatsapp and so on.

But sincerely these reasons shouldn't hinder you at all from getting that Android application you so much desire by yourself without any help or support.

Yes majorly you will argue that, if its not Playstore i will not download or receive on my device; that's how much trust many have for Playstore, but i tell you there are other stores and websites that are very trusted too like Playstore, infact some of them work alongside Playstore (immediately an android app update comes up on Playstore, they also get updated).

Where To Download Android Apps Without Using Google Playstore

Here have decided to share those top and best websites and places you can also download Android apps without using Playstore.

APKMirror

ApKMirror is a popular website were you can download any Android app you can think of, you can visit via www.apkmirror.com to download Android apps.

Not only does APKMirror make it easy to install apps if you don’t have the Play Store. It also helps you get early access to apps that may not yet be available foe you through the Play Store due to phase rollouts or regional restrictions.

Aptoide

You can download and install the Aptoide APK on your Android device, and you’ve basically got a third-party app store up and running in seconds. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Aptoide isn’t just an app store. It’s a platform that supports multiple app stores too, visit via https://en.aptoide.com/

F-Droid

You can download apps directly from the F-Droid website, here - https://f-droid.org/

They also have their own app, but if prefer not to install the app on your device it's okay still. But if you want to receive latest app updates, then you might want to install the F-Droid app store.

Amazon Appstore

This is basically the app and game store Amazon uses for its Fire tablets and TV boxes, you can download and install the Amazon Appstore APK on any Android-powered device that supports installation of apps from unknown sources or visit the Amazon Appstore website - https://www.amazon.com/mobile-apps

Amazon’s store includes hundreds of thousands of apps and games, including some (but not all) of the most popular apps available from the Play Store. But sometimes the Amazon Appstore versions are updated more slowly than their Play Store counterparts.

Other Places

Yes, there are other places to install apps with Google Playstore, APKPure is a pretty nice one, and the site’s mobile app even mimics the look and feel of the Google Play Store in many respects. APK-DL is another. But you do run the risk of obtaining modified versions of Android apps when downloading from some of these sites, so proceed with caution.

In Conclusion
I want you to know that the sites have listed above are very trusted and okay to download android apps without any need for Google Playstore.

But I think it's not secure downloading for all these third party sites. Your phone might be prone to virus.
Though, that play store apps do crash my phone at times.
