About this app

Save apps that are installed on your device to an APK file with one tap.

You can use this app to create backups or install apps on devices without access to the internet. You can also install your APKs on devices that do not have access to the app via the main store. For example: if an app is not available on the store for your smart TV, you can usually still install the app using an APK file without issue.

Features:
- One tap APK downloading for single apps
- Long press for bulk downloading
- Supports large multi-part APKs like games
- Sorting by install date or name
- Search bar to quickly find the app you want
- Responsive and intuitive user interface

APK Downloader needs permission to access photos, media, and files to be able to read the APKs from the device's app storage folders as well as to copy the APK to the device's main storage.

Root access is not required to use this app.

Ratings and reviews

Like another review says, this does work, you fire it up, hit the download arrow, it presents a list of all apps on your phone, you tap the app, and it creates an .apk to your chosen folder. However there a pile of apps on my phone that this app doesn't present in the list (esp the one I'm trying to back up!). Can't find them by name or any other way. Where are they? Thanks.

Despite some strange reviews, it does what it claims to do, which is to place the APK files for your apps into your Download folder. It does NOT claim to download anything from elsewhere. Unfortunately (as far as I'm concerned) like all the others I've looked at so far, it has no Batch Mode, which makes it difficult to do this with a large number of files (I have well over a hundred apps installed).

It doesn't show all the apps on my phone, it only shows a few. Unfortunately, the app that I'm trying to make an .apk of is not one of the ones that are shown. This review will stay at *1 until this is fixed.
