App not installed as app isn’t compatible with your phone, that is the first thing that appears when we want to install an APK on systems with Android 14 or later. But today we bring you a solution to this problem, let’s get started.
app not installed as app isn’t compatible with your phone APK
We’ll do everything without a PC. If you want a PC tutorial, let us know in the comments!
First, activate the developer options on your phone. Go to settings, scroll down to “About phone” or a similar section, and tap “Build number” several times until the developer options are enabled.
If this doesn’t work, look up how to do it specifically for your phone model on YouTube. It’s very easy and won’t take much time.
Download the Applications that we will use
The second step is to download these two apps, but one of them isn’t available in the store and can only be downloaded as an APK.
Shizuku Via GooglePlay
InstallWithOptionsSetting up Shizuku
First, open Shizuku and select “Pairing.” Then, go to “Developer Options,” find and enable “USB Debugging.” After that, enable “Wireless Debugging.“
In the “Wireless Debugging” option, select “Pair device with pairing code.” Remember the code that appears, but don’t close that window. Instead, pull down the notifications, select the Shizuku notification, and enter the code.
Let’s go back and open Shizuku, then tap on Start. Wait for the process to complete, then select Authorized Application and check Install With Options.
Use InstallWithOptions
We’re almost done! Open InstallWithOptions and select Choose Files. Pick your APK, whether it’s a game or an application.
Proceed to check only the “Bypass Low Target SDK Block” box, then press install.
With that, our app should be ready to go. Just find it and open it.
Keep this in mind:
Shizuku must be active every time you want to use Install With Options. Otherwise, an error will occur.
Therefore, when you open Shizuku, it should look like this:
But if it doesn’t look like that, just click on “Start,” then go to “Developer Options,” activate wireless debugging again, go back, and click “Start” again.
