5. How to install .ZIP games using Split APKs Installer?

Some games come in ZIP format, which includes the APK and OBB data within the same package. Android doesn't install ZIPs automatically, so you'll need to use an additional app called Split APKs Installer (SAI). Here's how easy it is:

  1. 1. Download the game ZIP file here on the website.
  2. 2. Install the app Split APKs Installer (SAI) on your cell phone.
  3. 3. Open SAI and tap “Install APKs” or “Install ZIP”.
  4. 4. Browse to the ZIP file you downloaded and select it.
  5. 5. Follow the steps on the screen and wait until the installation is complete.
  6. 6. After that, just open the game and enjoy!

6. What is an XAPK or APK file and how to install it?

XAPK and APK files are packages that contain multiple files from the same application, such as the main game and its additional data (textures, sounds, settings, etc.). They are used to facilitate the installation of large games that require more than one file. To install an XAPK or APK, follow these steps:

  1. 1. Download and install the app ZArchiver on Google Play.
  2. 2. Open ZArchiver and find the XAPK file or APKs you downloaded.
  3. 3. Tap on it and then choose "Install".
  4. 4. Wait a few seconds for the process to finish.
  5. 5. When everything is ready, open the game and enjoy!

ZArchiver is great for handling these types of files because it opens, extracts, and installs everything easily.

7. How to install .ZIP files manually?

Some games and apps come in ZIP format because they contain the APK and a data folder called OBB. These files are important; without them, the game may not work properly. Here's how to install ZIP files manually:

  1. 1. Download the ZIP file from our website.
  2. 2. Open the ZArchiver and extract the contents of the ZIP.
  3. 3. Install the extracted APK file.
  4. 4. Take the extracted OBB folder and move it to the path: Android / obb /
  5. 5. Then just open the game and enjoy!

If the game does not open, check if the OBB folder has the same name as the game package (for example: com.nomedojogo.obb).

8. The download link isn't working. What should I do?

If you clicked a download button and the link didn't open or was broken, don't worry! This can happen from time to time, as the site handles a lot of games and apps, and some links may be down or out of date. Here's what you can do:

  1. 1. Go to the area where the download button is.
  2. 2. There you will see the option “Report post” or “Report broken link”.
  3. 3. Choose the reason for the problem and send the message to us.

Our team will check the link and fix it as quickly as possible, usually within a few hours! You can also use our contact page to notify you directly. We really appreciate your patience and helping us keep the site up to date!

9. Why is the APK not working properly?

If the game won't open, crashes, or closes on its own, it could be for a few simple reasons. Here's what you can do:

  1. 1. Download the latest version of the game or app from our website.
  2. 2. Completely delete the old version before installing the new one.
  3. 3. If the error still occurs, free up memory space and restart your phone.
  4. 4. Make sure you have a stable internet connection for the game to start.

Sometimes the problem isn't with your phone; the developer may have recently updated the game with some kind of bug. In this case, just wait for the new, fixed version.

10. I'm getting the error "Application not installed." How can I fix it?

This error is very common and can happen for a few simple reasons. The most common is when you already have another version of the same app installed on your phone (like a Google Play version, for example). Here's how to solve it step by step:

  1. 1. Go to Settings > Apps and uninstall the old version of the app.
  2. 2. If you want, use a cleaning app to remove old files.
  3. 3. Then, download the updated APK again from our website.
  4. 4. Tap the file and follow the installation process as usual.

Done! Your game or app should now work without issues. If the error persists, restart your phone and try again. Sometimes the system needs to update the installation files.

11. How do I update a game or app without losing progress?

Nobody likes losing their game progress, right? But don't worry, updating your games and apps without losing data is really easy! Follow the steps below:

  1. 1. When a new version is released, download the updated APK from our website.
  2. 2. Install the new file over the old version (without uninstalling).
  3. 3. Your data and progress should be automatically maintained.

Make sure the package name (game ID) is the same as the previous version. If the developer changes the ID, the game may not recognize your save data.

12. Why can't I log in with Facebook or Google?

Some modified games and apps (also called alternative versions or mods) have login limitations. For security reasons, Android blocks logins using Facebook, Google, or other accounts connected to unofficial APKs. Unfortunately, there is no way to fix this for now. But there is a simple solution:

If social login is crucial to you, we recommend downloading the official version of the app from Google Play. This way, you can log in with your accounts normally and keep all your data safe. For games that don't require login, the version on our website works perfectly!
