The Android system is designed to be very open. We can install apps from various sources just like how we install software to PC. But many of us haven't tried to install apps from outside of Play Store at all.
Google has an extemely strict policy in Google Play Store. A lot of apps can't get published in Play Store. And many popular apps have been removed from Play Store for one reason or another. We're missing half of fun because many awesome apps can't be found in Google.
For example, TubeMate is one of my favorite app to save videos from YouTube/Facebook. It has been removed from Play Store for years. You can't find it in Play Store any longer. Here I will show a tutorial on how to download and install AIO Downloader, an alternative app market to Play Store. It has not only hosted all apps you can find in Play Store, but also hosted millions of apps you can't find in Play Store. From AIO Downloader, we can find TubeMate for sure.
