think of it as App blog Android client, the content is not provided by me but the blog author
I'm just making it simple to download and browse for app in your smartphones easier
Answer the question. Linking to illegal downloads is no better than hosting them yourself. If your app provides access to illegal downloads, you'll be reported. The app crashes on my phone, so I cannot confirm it for myself. Answer vaguely again, and you'll be reported anyway
It does work and is illegal I would remove it if I were you....

I've been wondering, is it illegal to share .apk files of free games and applications? I'm pretty sure sharing apps and games that you need to pay for at the Android Market is a crime but what about the free ones?
Let's say I upload the apk on a file host, post it and under it post link to the market page or credit the developer.
EDIT: Sorry I forgot to tick the question option.
No, and you'll find a lot of chefs cooking launchers, file explorers etc. into their ROMs

So that means it's ok to distribute free apps on blogs and websites?
I think so, yeah

It seems weird why anyone would want apks for free apps that you could get from the market but... I don't think its illegal

Well let's say some people aren't on a data plan and are nowhere near a WiFi spot. The only solution would be to atleast download a few games and applications through the computer and transfer them. Talking about free apps ofcourse.
I think so, yeah
Sorry for my google-english ))
It is necessary to install the application of site сars.com,
but googleplay does not do it (not available for Russia).
Most of the request - Put please apk file.
Thanks in advance.
I've found that theres apps that I needed and sometimes couldn't be found in app market anymore so I need to go search for apk files.
APK Sharing Platform
Hi all,
Taking the risk of being called a troll for reviving a old thread I wanted to introduce you to an app sharing platform called Swably.
Swably is the Android app and APK sharing community. Swably gives users options when it comes to quickly and easily sharing mobile apps within a peer to peer android app sharing community.
So please, take a look. We would love to have some feedback!
Cheers,
Taylor Amarel
Hi all.
I will to have a site (or more) to download .apk apps and games free.
Is there a site? Are there more apps and games?
Thanks

Just buy the app, if you can afford to pay your monthly phone bill then I'm sure that you can drop a few dollars for the apps you want.
other?
So while we are on this subject, how are not allowed to post cracked apps? While I am against it the reasoning doesn't work. We will take the skype app, which is licensed, modify it and place it on xda. That is no different than taking someone else's app and making it suit our needs without permission.

That's a good point. Although there was a crackdown on those modded Dropbox apks...

I don't see a request for an alternative site as a request for hacked/stolen etc apps..
Unlocking features omitted for marketing purposes that are free elsewhere on the same app is a little bit of a grey area
Also the need for a major alternative freeware shareware app site is definite..

I'm also looking for a LEGIT alternative to the Google Play Store because I sometimes have DPI issues with the market and it gives compatibility errors. I want to clarify this, I just want another place to download .apks that are free on the market that isn't a shady DDL I found on google.
Guys, don't judge, it's possible the OP lives elsewhere where the entire play store is not available and he wants an app. That is a perfectly fine reason for piracy in my book.

There is nothing wrong with requesting free apps apk files, (though I highly recommend doing it in there Q&A section, not android apps & games) just look at this here. On there other hand, paid app apks, cracks to free apps to make then act like paid apps, or cracking apps to defrauded a company (i.e. The dropbox hack) all are considered Warez.
Also, app markets that do not link to Google Play (i.e. App Brainz links to Google play for downloads) are considered Warez markets & won't be tolerated.

Also: For anybody having DPI issues, have you tried this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wxLDEsImNvbS5iaXJkYXBpLmFuZHJvaWQuZHBpcHJvIl0. (To install it set dpi to normal for your device, delete market data/cache, reboot into recovery, wipe cache/dalvik cache & then download from market, it'll let you change dpi without issues (so it says, I haven't tested it))
There's a new dropbox hack out there for 50gb for two years using sgs3 files. But I understand what you all are saying
Thanks for the info

Shameless plug but I think it would come in handy for quite a few people.
This tool allows you to download any (free) APK from the Android Market by simply entering it's package name. There's no requirement to install anything, enter your Google username/password or enter your device Id.

I can see how it can come across as spam as I have 0 post history but it isn't - it actually works. Give it ago, nothing to lose.
This is the best tool of its kind and it really works. Thanks OP for this wonderful thing. Even there is a binary for windows on the website.
This looks rather interesting.
However, as you point out in your own website "you shouldn’t trust random binaries on the Internet and thus the C# source code is available if you wish to build it your self", it would be great to know how this works.
The C# app is just a wrapper for your web app. It doesn't show how it's done, so it doesn't allay any fears other than running the windows app. You still don't know anything about the apk that's downloaded.
Great idea though.
Exactly.
However I've downloaded a few small files and they match with the ones I already had.
I won't share how it's done but the APK is directly downloaded from the Play Store as if you were browsing it your self. Feel free to do MD5/SHA1 checksum comparisons of the apk from the play store and of the apk downloaded via this tool.
So can this extension download paid apps for free or what? I don't know cos I'm not on my pc and can't view the link on my phone

If it could then the thread would have been deleted and the OP would be receiving a stern message about distributing warez on a developers' forum. So, no - it doesn't download paid apps for free, as it says in the 1st post.
I guess it was good while it lasted.
As for the last day, no longer working.

This looks pretty nifty! I was trying to download the new Kairosoft game with it, but I guess because it has IAP or something, your downloader won't work. It's a free app.

Can read your texts and your contacts and call log? Lol...luckily....I'm a DEV and blocked those permissions while still using it
Depending on how the App itself is hosting these said movies... ISP's will ban them and you can get a letter in the mail on illegal copyrighted movies...careful...there were apps in the past that caused this...I mean...crackle is one thing..this can be a malicious app like some before it

Hello,
I have an interesting problem to solve. Your insights or ideas will be helpful. I have purchased "Automatic Call Recorder - ACR" and its license app (separate app that needs to be purchased installed). Since the apps are alphabetically ordered on my mobile, I changed the ACR apk (using APKEdit) to XACR. The app works well but it cannot detect the license app and provides only free features.
Is there any way I can make it detect the license app? I tried to rename the license app by adding 'x' but didn't work. Within the APK, is there a location where I can tell/configure the APK to find the correct app?
If this requires a lot of time and efforts, I would be ready to pay (depends on how much is your ask).

I understand this is a genuine request, but xda is not a place where anyone can come to make money so payment is out of the question. The other part I'm also not sure about, we have to be careful when modding a license as it is a paid app so not something we could really discuss
