Google alternatives? - Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers

So im loving my P40 Pro but was wondering if anyone had found any good/viable alternatives to certain Goolgle services?
I've been trying out some of the sat navs in app gallery in place of google maps but what about everything else?

I use a web browser for YouTube but I've asked on here and was told to try out YouTube Vanced.

Google Play Magazines apk - does anyone have it

I read magazine using Google Play Magazines, which now has been replaced with Newsstand.
The thing is, I don't use Newsstand to read news. Unfortunately, Newsstand is a big bloatware. It runs in the background all the time and download stuff, even though I disable that feature.
So can anyone provide me with the original apk for Google Play Magazine?

Apps Apps Apps

So I'm happily using my P40 Pro (camera) is incredible but am wondering if I'm able to get Google play store on there to download apps like YouTube and Google photos. I used these on my last device fine which was a P30 Pro. Im not very technically minded.

Spotify on P40 Lite

hey guys,
I can´t start spotify. it shows the spotify logo and then it stucks on a black screen. I got the .apk from APKPure. On the Amazon Appstore I also can´t find spotify over the P40 Lite amazon app.
I don´t care about all the google apps, but I need spotify. You have any idea?
FIXED: just install the spotify lite app, login and then run the normal spotify app. Worked for me
bests regards

Not sure about P40 Lite, but on my P40 I can install Spotify via Petal Search (the source is also from APKPure). I can launch Spotify until the Log In page without any problem.
I didn't try logging in as I don't have Spotify account and I'm not using it at all.
Alternatively if you still have your old Android phone with you, use Phone Clone to clone Spotify over to your P40 Lite.
Good luck!
FIXED:
I just downloaded the spotify lite app. this one worked. I logged into my account. Then I installed the normal spotify app and it also worked.
