Copy the link

Open the app listing in Google Play and copy its URL. A valid link contains an id= parameter such as com.example.app.

Choose architecture

Most current phones use ARM64. Older 32-bit devices may require ARMv7.

Base and split APKs

Modern Play Store apps often use a base APK plus device, language and density splits. Install all matching splits together or use a correctly merged package.
