How To Download Android Apps On The Nokia X, X+ and XL

As we already Know, The Nokia X Android smartphone won’t come with access to the Google Play store.
The Nokia X is built on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP), version 4.1.2 Jelly Bean. Nokia has made very few alterations to the AOSP for its new smartphone, and so says that most existing Android apps should work on the Nokia X without modification.
Although Google Play isn’t on board the Nokia X, several third-party app stores are preloaded, such as Yandex. Those stores are often more popular than Google Play in the very countries Nokia is targeting.

Three Ways To Download Apps

• Third-party app stores: As noted above, these are already common app sources in many countries. For instance, Yandex in Russia is one of the biggest providers of Android apps for users there. Third-party app stores will be available as links through the Nokia store, allowing users to download just about any app from anywhere.
• The Nokia store: This will feature Nokia’s own selection array of apps. Nokia says developers can use their standard Android Application Package Files (APKs)—which are sort of zipped-up software “suitcases” for transporting app and related software—and basically drag and drop them into the Nokia Store. Nokia has a tool that will scan the app for compatibility, and says that most apps won’t need to change a thing.

The Nokia X will also support sideloading, just as Amazon’s Kindle Fire tablets do.

• Sideloaded apps: Android allows the ability to directly download an APK from any source, which means that all users will have to do is find the file and install it. (Though it’s worth noting that this can be a risky proposition, depending on where users are finding their apps.)
