If you have just bought an Android phone, then you have arrived quite late in the game but as the proverb goes, better late than never. So, you must be wondering as to how to get everything installed on your phone from Instagram to Facebook and everything else. The Google Play Store is the all-important component that will enable you to get all these apps because it is the official Android app marketplace. Now, the Google Play Store is, by default, available as a pre-installed app on all Android smartphones but there are times when they have become corrupt due to some reason or due to the phone software crashing. If that happens, the users are generally left helpless and they wander on the Internet in search for the solution to get the problem rectified. If that has happened with you and you are currently wandering from post to post in search of the solution, then let me tell you that this post exactly deals with your problem as the Google Play Store app is not available on the Play Store itself.

So, what you have to do is just go down below and select your device and follow the instructions given along with it and you will easily get it installed on your system.

Google Play Store download for Android:

We will start with Android because this post is primary about the Google Play Store, which is an Android product. Without further ado, let us get on with what you have to do in order to get the Play Store installed on your Android device.

  • The first thing that you have to do is to check the version of the Google Play Store if you have it on your phone but it is not working due to some reason. If it is not there, then there is not much of a problem but if it is there then you have to uninstall it first. If it refuses to be uninstalled then you can use a file cleaning service.
  • After you have that problem handled, you can then search the Internet for the latest version of the Google Play Store for Android. A thing that you have to remember while downloading this apk file is that you should do it from a big name website. Newer websites tend to provide unstable APK files and if you are running on bad luck then you might even get malicious APK files.
  • After you get it downloaded on your system successfully, you can then proceed with the installation but before that, you have to keep in mind that the Play Store APK is not from the Google Play Store and, therefore, the Android Operating System will treat it as suspicious software. In order to make your phone trust the APK, you can open the phone Settings and click on Security. On the Security menu, you will have to Enable the Unknown Sources option which allows the operating system to accept software from external sources.
  • Once you are done with that, you can install the software like any other normal app by clicking on it and giving it permission to access everything that it needs and it will be installed in no time at all.
  • After the installation is completed, you can launch the app and sign in with your credentials and you are ready to access apps and install them on your Android device again.

Note: Once everything is done, do not forget to disable the unknown sources option that you had previously activated because it is a gap in security that you had created for the app to get through and if you don’t cover it up, then other malicious apps or even hackers could exploit that vulnerability.
