Downloading applications from other sources
When your device is set to allow downloads from sources other than Google Play™, you
can download applications directly from other websites by following the relevant
download instructions.
Installing applications of unknown or unreliable origin can damage your device. Only download
applications from reliable sources. Contact the application provider if you have any questions
or concerns.
If you are using a device with multiple users, only the owner, that is, the primary user, can allow
downloads from sources other than Google Play™. Changes made by the owner affect all
other users.
