How to Install APK and XAPK Files

If you’re unsure how to install APK or XAPK files, follow our detailed tutorial below:

What is an APK File?
An APK file (Android Package Kit) is the standard file format used by the Android operating system for distributing and installing apps. Each APK file contains all the necessary components of an app, including code, assets, and resources. All Android apps, whether downloaded from the Google Play Store or manually, rely on APK files.

Steps to Install an APK File:

  1. Download the APK file from ModMINI.ME.
  2. Open the downloaded APK file.
  3. In the pop-up box, select Install.
  4. If prompted to allow unknown sources, press Agree to enable installation.

What is an XAPK File?
An XAPK file is a package container for Android apps, similar to a .Zip file. It can include additional data like OBB files, making it suitable for larger apps and games. XAPK files cannot be directly installed and require a supported installer.

Steps to Install an XAPK File:

  1. Download the app or game ending with “.XAPK” from ModMINI.ME.
  2. Download and install the XAPK Installer from this link: XAPK Installer.
  3. Open the XAPK Installer and select the downloaded XAPK file.
  4. Let the installer handle the process.
  5. Once completed, find your app or game icon on your device’s home screen.

That’s all you need to enjoy your favorite Android apps and games from ModMINI!
