Modern smartphones have many useful and not very functions and applications, but, alas, the Play Market is not always built into them. More and more often come across devices running the Android operating system, where there is anything but it. Therefore, many users are wondering how to install Play Market on their phone. It's not difficult, but it does require some work.
How to download
There are two easy ways: through a computer and through a phone. Experienced users do not wonder at all, since the procedure is quite simple. But the one who first encountered such a problem begins to frantically search for the answer to the question "how to install Play Market on the phone if it is not there." The easiest way to do this is through the smartphone itself.
What you need
The procedure requires a phone, internet connection, the simplest browser,which is in any device. The method may not be the most ideal, but it can be used without any extra effort. "Play Market" for the phone is desirable to download from the official site, and not through third-party sites. First, this is how the user gets the latest version. Secondly, there is less chance of falling for the trick of scammers. Often with their files, malware also gets into the phone, which is then difficult to remove.
How to download directly to your phone
Going to the official Google website, you need to go to the Play tab. Her logo is for example in the picture above. On the page that opens, you need to find (you can use the search bar) the Play Market application. Downloading it on your phone is easy. Just a few minutes or seconds, depending on the data transfer rate, and the application will be in the operating system.
How to download to your computer
This method is also not the most difficult, but requires more steps. Before you install the Play Market on your phone, you need to go to the official Google website. All you need is a search string. In it you need to enter "Play Market". In the future, games on the phone can be downloaded through it, like other applications. The installation file is needed in the ".apk" permission. It downloads in a couple of seconds to the downloads folder on your computer. You will need to transfer it to your phone.
How to transfer
By connecting the USB cable to the computer and the machine,you need to confirm the synchronization on the device. Only then the installation file is transferred to the phone's memory or a memory card in it. Even a completely inexperienced user can cope with this.
Settings
Unfortunately, it's not enough just to download and install (by clicking on the application file) "Market". It still needs to be configured. Especially if the smartphone is brand new, with factory settings. Therefore, you need to set up the "Play Market" on your phone. This is done as follows: first, the application is launched. If it works normally and without failures, then it can be used without any settings and changes in functions. But this is not always the case. If the application does not work (constantly crashes, does not download anything, does not turn on), then you need to first select the appropriate version. For example, not all Android versions support the latest Play Store updates. Therefore, you need to do a simple "rollback". You need to go to the phone settings (they are in the menu where the clock is), then to the "Applications" tab. There you need to find the Play Market. By clicking on it, you can open the function menu. It has a tab-button "Erase data". After selecting it, a "rollback" to the initial version will occur.
Other settings
It's worth checking if downloads and installations are allowed on your phone. This is done in the smartphone menu, in the settings. In the "Security" item, you must put down all the necessary checkboxes. Namely: allowing installation from unknown sources(the system will warn you that this is not safe), checking applications (so that warnings come out), passwords if necessary. After that, you can restart your smartphone so that you can use it normally.
Account
You need to remember that before installing the Play Market on your phone, you will need to create a personal account (mail) in the Google service. This action is performed in a few clicks. Either separately on the computer, or immediately in the program when it is downloaded. You must specify your first and last name (preferably real ones), come up with a login for yourself, check if it is free (the system does this automatically), set a password (secure, complex, but memorable). If you wish, you can subscribe to mailing lists from Google, set your payment details so that you can buy programs. When the account is activated, you can safely enter the "Play Market" and use it. By the way, in order not to lose access to your personal account, it is advisable to ask a key question and an additional email or phone number to which the account will be linked. If you lose your password, you can quickly recover it. All downloaded applications will be saved for the user.
