The Google play store (previously known as the Android market) is a digital application distribution platform for Android and an online electronics store that is developed and maintained by Google. The Google play store enables one to browse and download movies, music, games, books and applications published through Google for Android powered devices. Well, some applications are only paid while others can be obtained absolutely free. You can even download the apps to your Smartphone after buying them. But there are certain problems that arise while downloading directly to your Smartphone.
Problems Downloading Apps To Smartphone
Getting Google Play store errors? You’re not alone.
For downloading from Google store directly to your Smartphone, it is necessary that you must have an account and after logging in you can download the apps. However, you must also have an internet connection on your phone and the process can be pretty time consuming. If your Internet connection on your phone is weak or slow then it will be very difficult to download the applications from the Google play store. Maybe you don’t even have internet on your phone? You might only have internet on your PC.
If you carry out the updates and ROM installations frequently on your Smartphone, then you have to re-download the applications again from Google store. It is because of this that when you download the apps it directly installs the apps to your phone rather than saving it first to SD card, so you are also not provided with any setup file. But now you can download the applications from Google store directly to your computer. You can use an app to back up the applications & save them conveniently on your computer.

While running the “Real APK Leecher” for the first time, it will ask you to provide your account details for the Google Play store along with your Device ID. By dialling *#*#8255#*#* from your dialler, you can verify your device ID. In case of tablet, no dialler will be present so you have to download an app Device ID to obtain the Device ID. However the device ID looks somewhat like android-39bfe2hsaxxxxxx, but you have to provide the letters after android like 39bfe2hsaxxxxxx. Next, specify a folder to save the apps on your computer. Click the save button after you have provided all the details. However by pressing CTRL+0, you can alter your account details whenever you want.
