Cool thanks. That would have been really handy to me lately if I had a pc

It's a Java app. Works on Mac & Linux too.

Yeah I don't have a desktop/laptop fullstop unfortunately mate. Thanks though

Try this one, it doesn't work for all cases, but it can work from a phone

Just had a quick look mate thanks. So is this an app or a site?

 

[niver]

That one is a site. You enter the full name of the app you want, and it tries to get it from Google Play for you. I'm sure you can follow the instructions.

Yeah sorry bro. Laziness is one of my worst traits. I had a quick look for a download link then came back here scrounging for details. My apologies

 

[funkylogik]

You absolute legend.
It worked perfectly.
I owe you one mate
Seriously thanks, I'd been pulling apks from dodgy sources that demanded to be updated but this pulled it from Play. Bookmarked and thanks again!
(guess I'll have to do the same thing with updates?)

I had used a link I got from androidtablets.net and sideloaded via computer.

I do most from the computer as you can't shut the phone off as fast as you can pull the power plug or ethernet cable on the computer.

Can you PM me here with more info on that Raccoon APK?
I have older files on my Acer tablet that are legit, I purchased them, but can't get the old versions now. I learned long ago not to update automatically.
