So with adb I should still be able to install old apps? Also is there a way to back up my apps without root, since there’s been some old apps that stopped showing up even for ones I bought when I tried to download them on newer phones.
Yep they give the command in the article but to install an APK, all you have to do is plug into a computer that has the APK downloaded and use adb install --bypass-low-target-sdk-block appname.apk
I used it on android 14 and it looks like it’ll also work on 15

But it wasn’t updated since 2017. Still works though.
The easiest way I’ve found without root or ADB is to use Solid Explorer. Well worth the cost.
I select the APK I want and copy it to a different directory. Extremely painless.
I have solid Explorer so this is perfect. Thank you.
