Simplifying app installation and backup

Amid evolving standards, APK Installer by Uptodown’s primary goal is to simplify the manual installation of mobile apps. Using this free tool, you can effortlessly install any virus-free APK or XAPK to your device. Plus, it eliminates the need to research file formats or destination folders extensively.

For seamless APK installation

A versatile tool, APK Installer facilitates the installation of applications that use file formats not recognized by the operating system’s default package installer. It employs the standard XAPK packaging to support Google’s APK split distribution system, a recent development in terms of app deployment.

Besides that, it can also back up apps accordingly. When backing up apps, it packages all files — APK + split-APKs + OBB, if any — into a single XAPK file. Unfortunately, tech hiccups happen from time to time and some installations may fall through. It also can’t batch-process files.

Reliable app installation and backup tool

By allowing the installation of applications that use unconventional file formats and employing the standard XAPK packaging system, APK Installer by Uptodown supports the evolving standards of app deployment. Additionally, the tool’s ability to package all necessary files into a single XAPK file during backup proves advantageous. 

  • Pros

    • Streamlines manual app installation
    • Supports XAPK packaging
  • Cons

    • Occasional technical hiccups
    • No batch-processing feature
