Don't install apk files, install from playstore. This apps are available on the playstore, free.......
Re: App Not Installed Problem by Emmysky(m): 7:34am On May 02, 2020
There are one of 3 reasons why those apps are not installing:
1. Incorrect Signature: This mostly happens when you are updating the app from a modded source especially games. For example you download candy crush from play store and later you see a modded version on some site with unlimited lives and whatever. if you try and update it directly, you will get that error screen unless you delete the original one and install the modded one which will clear all your progress and data in the game. This is because in the process of modifying the app, the modder decompiles it and then change values in it. When recompiling, they can't use the same signature the original maker used, it's not possible hence they use their own signature to recompile leading to the signature mismatch when installing. Only way to bypass this is to disable "Android Signature verification" but that's not an option now neither is it the cause of the error you are receiving now.

2. System Architecture mismatch: When installing these apps from play, Playstore auto detects your system Architecture and installs the one best suited to your CPU, be it armeabi v7a, armv64-v8a, x86, x64 et cetera. If the other device has an arch different from yours and you try to install it, you'll get the error and it is mostly common in system apps. Unless the app dev made his app support multiple architectures in which case you'll be able to send to any device and still work. This error mostly occurs with games especially the high-end one's like fortnite.

3. The app doesn't support your android version yet: For example, You try to send a game from a 4.4 kitkat device unto an Android 10 device and you haven't updated the app in a while, chances are that you'll run into that error of "App not installed" due to android version unsupported. Vice versa is the case when an app no longer support older android version as it us typical nowadays for most app to drop support for android 5.0 and below. Only way to fix this is to directly download it from playstore on your device.

This was longer than planned but wanted it to be clear.. cheers wink
