The step-by-step process for a user with no access to app stores to deploy an Android APK is typically called **Sideloading** or installing from an "Unknown Source." This process involves downloading the application package file (.apk extension) and manually installing it.

Step-by-Step Guide: Sideloading the APK

1. Obtain the APK File

  • Download Directly: Use your device's web browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox) to navigate to the app developer's official website, https://wdi.net/rem/, and download the .apk file.
  • Transfer from PC: If you downloaded the APK on a computer, you can transfer it to your Android device via:
    • USB cable (using "File Transfer" mode).
    • Cloud storage service (like Google Drive or Dropbox).
    • Peer-to-peer sharing apps (if one is already installed).

2. Enable Installation from Unknown Sources

Android blocks installations from sources other than official app stores by default for security. You must grant permission for the app you will use to open the APK (usually your browser or a file manager).

For Android 8.0 (Oreo) and newer:

  1. Go to Settings.
  2. Search for "Install unknown apps" or navigate to Apps → Special app access → Install unknown apps.
  3. Find and select the app you will use to open the APK (e.g., your browser or your file manager app).
  4. Toggle "Allow from this source" to ON.

For Android 7.0 (Nougat) and older:

  1. Go to Settings.
  2. Navigate to Security (or Lock screen and security).
  3. Toggle the "Unknown sources" option to ON.

3. Locate and Install the APK

Using a File Manager:

  1. Open your file manager app (e.g., "Files by Google" or "My Files").
  2. Navigate to the folder where the APK was downloaded (usually the "Downloads" folder).
  3. Tap on the downloaded .apk file.

Using a Browser's Downloads List (If downloaded directly):

  1. Open the browser you used to download the file.
  2. Go to the Downloads section.
  3. Tap the downloaded .apk file.

Complete the Installation:

  1. A prompt will appear asking if you want to install the application.
  2. Tap "Install".
  3. Wait for the process to complete.
  4. Once finished, you can tap "Open" to launch the app or "Done".

4. Security Best Practice (Recommended)

After successfully installing the application, it is **strongly recommended** that you revoke the permission to install unknown apps to maintain device security.

  • Go back to the "Install unknown apps" setting (Step 2).
  • Toggle "Allow from this source" back to OFF for the browser or file manager you used.
