    APK (Android Application Package) is a file format used by the Android operating system to bundle and distribute applications. It contains all the necessary elements, such as code, resources, and assets, needed to install and run an Android application on an Android device. APK files are typically downloaded and installed directly on Android devices or distributed through various app stores.

  1. APK

    Android application package file is the file format used to distribute and install application software and middleware onto Google's Android operating system; very similar to MSI package in Windows or Deb package in Ubuntu. To make an APK file, a program for Android is first compiled, and then all of its parts are packaged into one file. An APK file contains all of that program's code, resources, assets, certificates, and manifest file. As is the case with many file formats, APK files can have any name needed, provided that the file name ends in ".apk". APK files are ZIP file formatted packages based on the JAR file format, with .apk file extensions. The MIME type associated with APK files is application/vnd.android.package-archive.
