Sending Android apps - is that possible?
Sending Android apps could be useful. You can find out whether - and if so - how this works in this article.
Send Android apps via email - so it'll work
With the free app "MyAppSharer" you can convert and send your Android apps to APK files. Unfortunately, this only works with free Android apps.
- Start the free tool and select those you want to send from the list of your installed apps. To do this, place a checkmark behind the app name.
- Then select how you want to send the apps in the top menu bar: For example, by email or as a zip file via Bluetooth.
- You can at least recommend Google Play Store files to your friends as a PlayStore link.
- Your friends can install the APK files received via email without the Google Play store.
Send paid Android apps
Officially, you cannot send paid apps. After all, you have to pay for the corresponding programs. However, there is a small detour:
- In order to be able to give away paid Android apps as well, simply take a detour via the Google Play voucher cards.
- So the recipient only has to download and install the app from the PlayStore.
