How to Download Any App from Play Store Without Signing in using your Google Account...
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Consider these scenarios:

🔷 You have got an Android phone which did not come with Google Play Store pre-installed...

🔷 You have got a phone for your child but you do not want to create a new Google account for them, or even add your existing Google Account to their device just to enable them to download some apps from Play Store.

🔷 You just performed factory reset of your phone, and you don't remember password of your Google account that will be needed to sign into Play Store to install apps.

You will try more passwords later after consulting your friend who had created the account on your behalf, but right now you need to install your favorite app urgently.

You search for that app on Google but cannot find it on any trusted site like apkmirror.com or apkpure.com


🤔… You wonder: Is there a way to download apps from Google Play Store without signing in?

When there are problems, there are also solutions and workarounds...

Here comes this open-source app to your rescue:
👇 👇



AURORA STORE (A Google Play Store Client)
🔗 https://files.auroraoss.com/AuroraStore/Stable/

Just download the latest version of "Aurora Store" from the link shared above, and install it.


Ignore the warning about risk of installing apps from unknown sources as we know that it is a well-known open-source app and is perfectly safe to use.

❓ How to use:

🔸 Open Aurora Store, and perform initial setup like accepting terms of use, granting permissions, pressing "Next"/"Finish", etc.

🔸 Choose "Anonymous" log in (or log in using your Google account).

🔸 Search for any app that is available on Play Store.

Just give it a try, and share your experience in the comments' section below.

Try this video downloader for Android !


📥 PowerTube (open-source app! 👍 )
https://github.com/razar-dev/PowerTube/releases/


It works really good for downloading videos from lots of websites like Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, etc.

In particular, PowerTube is the only video downloader that currently seems to work for downloading videos from Twitter live broadcast links. We tried lots of well-known video downloader apps and online services but the only graceful solution that we came across was PowerTube.

#tip #android #playstore #alternative

Do you hate apps that need too many permissions to operate? Are you always searching for privacy-friendly and safer alternatives to your favorite apps?

Try F-Droid—a Play Store alternative for Android for getting lots of safe and open-source apps.
🔗 https://f-droid.org/F-Droid.apk

F-Droid is an installable catalogue of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) applications for the Android platform.


And here's an unofficial version of F-droid app (named "Droid-ify") which works much faster than the official F-droid app, is also open-source like the official app, and has lots of additional repositories for getting more open-source apps:
🔗 https://github.com/Iamlooker/Droid-ify/releases/
(Open link, and download latest "droidify-release.apk" from Assets section)

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯


❓ What is an open-source app?

Open-source apps are those apps whose internal programming code (source code) is freely available to everyone to view, download, edit, improve, contribute, and audit for security flaws or otherwise. Due to such transparency, open-source apps are preferred by many privacy and security conscious users. In addition, most (not all) of the open-source apps are totally free without feature restrictions, and many of them are even better than their closed-source alternatives.

❓ Why would I install F-Droid or Droid-ify to search for apps when Play Store already has millions of apps?

🔸 You can find safer & open-source alternatives to apps that you are already using.

🔸 Some apps can never be published on Play Store no matter how safe they are because they violate terms and conditions of Play Store. For example, Play Store will always reject or remove any app that tries to give option to download YouTube videos. So, for such apps we need to find alternative safe sources of apps like F-Droid.

🔸 Not all developers who publish their apps on F-Droid publish their apps on Play Store. So, there are many apps you will find exclusively on F-Droid.


❓ I can find some of the apps both on Play Store and F-Droid.

Yes, many of the apps hosted on F-droid are also available on Play Store because developers often publish their apps on multiple app stores.

While Play Store hosts both closed-source apps as well as open-source apps, F-droid only allows open-source apps.

❓ If the apps on F-Droid are safe to install, why do I get a warning when I try to install apps?

Android warns you about possible security issues when you install apps from sources other than Play Store.

The warning your phone displays when you sideload an app (install an app from sources other than the inbuilt Play Store) is a standard warning which is displayed to keep you aware of the risks of installing apps from unreliable sources.

But as we already know that all the apps available on F-Droid are open-source, so they are generally considered even safer than those available on Play Store. So, we can safely ignore the warning when we are sufficiently informed about the safety of the source the app is coming from.

❓ If the same app is also available on Play Store, are there any additional advantages or disadvantages of installing from F-Droid or Play Store?

It depends. There can be both advantages and disadvantages.

🔸 In some cases, app updates are available faster on F-Droid.

🔸 There have also been cases, where some app developers choose to provide full version of their apps free of cost on F-Droid, whereas the same pro-version is available for a cost on Play Store (e.g., Simple Gallery Pro).

🔸But in some cases, apps which were open-source earlier can become closed-source later. In such cases, you might find app updates being pushed only on Play Store but not on F-Droid.

#video_downloader #facebook

There are so many unofficial facebook browser apps for downloading Facebook videos.

If you have ever used such apps, you must have come across situations where the app is unable to open posts which are shared only with a specific audience (friends only, a non-public group, etc.).

To browse such posts, you are shown the facebook login page.

There have been so many cases of unofficial apps stealing login details of Facebook, YouTube, etc. that we often hesitate while entering our login details in any random unofficial app.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

But wait, here is an open-source alternative which can help you safely download videos in such cases...

👉 Frost for Facebook
https://www.f-droid.org/packages/com.pitchedapps.frost/

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

When browsing/downloading some media requires a Facebook login, we recommend that you stay safe by using this open-source app rather than using any random closed-source unofficial app.

#video_downloader #youtube #android

Try LibreTube, a feature rich Youtube video player app that allows you to download videos in your choice of resolution.

Just like NewPipe that we shared with you earlier, LibreTube also supports local playlists and local subscriptions which means you can create playlists and subscribe to channels locally within the app without even signing in to your YouTube account.

YouTube has an extremely invasive privacy policy which relies on using user data in unethical ways. They store a lot of your personal data - ranging from ideas, music taste, content, political opinions, and much more than you think.

LibreTube project is aimed at improving the users' privacy by being independent from Google and bypassing their data collection.

LibreTube proxies all requests via Piped (which uses the NewPipeExtractor). This prevents Google servers from accessing your IP address or any other personal data.

Here is the link to download LibreTube:

Have you ever faced a problem of not being able to view some of your latest music, image, or video files in Gallery?

OR

Have you faced a problem the other way round, where you don't want some folders of music, image, or video files to be shown in Gallery (or other) apps?



Here is an app to help you with it: 👇

AZ Media Rescan | SD Card Scan
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.foobar.azmediascanner


It uses two ways to do the magic:

❶ Media rescan of both internal and SD card storage.

❷ Media folders having a file named ".nomedia" usually don't show in Gallery apps. This app can help you find such folders and apply a temporary fix by deleting that file (in many cases, those files get created again), OR can help you quickly add a ".nomedia" file in those folders which you don't want to show up as media folders to Gallery (and other) apps which respect the ".nomedia" hint.

Best App to Compress Videos
========================

Friends, do you know that smaller videos (size-wise) have more chance of being viewed on WhatsApp?

Yes, many people avoid downloading bigger files to save data and to save phone storage space.

So, for activism on WhatsApp, compressing videos before sending is usually helpful.

Here is a dependable Android app that we use and recommend.
