APK Downloader

Have you ever wanted to get your hands on the latest game, only to find that the Google Play thought it wasn’t compatible with your phone?

Maybe you don’t have a snapdragon device, but you’re pretty sure an old device could handle it still. Have a Kindle Fire and want access to more than just the Amazon AppStore?

Until now you’ve been stuck, but a new online service also come with Chrome extension called APK Downloader will allow you to download an apk file from the Google Play directly to your desktop rather than to your device.

Just paste in the Google Play Store URL and you’re off!

Now I have it ready for my re-tests this week!

This should be kept in mind if you ever want to use an Android emulator such as Genymotion. Although it’s possible to get the Google Play Store app up, this is another way to easily get Android apps.
