2015-10-16
there are a lot of good deals out there
for Android smartphones and tablets
unfortunately some lesser-known devices
may not come with the Google Play Store
pre-installed making it a lot more
difficult to download apps but there's
no need to worry because you can
manually install the Play Store on
virtually any Android device I'm going
to show you how on this device from
Huawei it may look slightly different on
your device but the basic steps are all
the same first head to settings click
security and enable unknown sources you
will get a message warning you about the
dangers of installing apps outside of
Google Play but you'll be fine as long
as you use a trusted site like apk mera
kaam this is a site from the guys behind
the blog Android police and they check
each app to make sure it's safe on apk
mirror search for the Google Play Store
make sure to select the most recent
version and click download I will also
have a link to it in my story over at
cnet.com once it has been downloaded to
your phone open the file either through
the notification menu or the Downloads
folder and install it it's as easy as
that you can now install your favorite
apps right from the Google Play Store
