At this summer, many developers are using app bundles (split apk) for some reason, more likely reducing size of APK... It seems Google are highly recommending all devs to use bundles right now. Fortunately, it's still installable. Still it does slowing down modding process.
This has bugged me for a while. So I decided to make quick tutorial

In this tutorial, I will show you how to install split APKs and .APKS file extension

First all all, check your device CPU architecture and supported ABIs

Download and install AIDA64 from Play Store AIDA64 - Apps on Google Play

Open It and go to CPU -> and find Instruction Set and ABI Information

ARMv7 (32-bit) devices support: armeabi, armeabi-v7a
ARM64 (64-bit) devices support: armeabi, armeabi-v7a, arm64-v8a
x86 (32-bit) devices support: armeabi, armeabi-v7a, x86
x64 (64-bit) devices support: armeabi, armeabi-v7a, arm64-v8a, x86, x86_64

Now you know if splitted APKs is supported for your device

Go to Playstore and download the Split APKs Installer (SAI) Split APKs Installer (SAI) - Apps on Google Play
