    You download and install the APK file. When prompted to allow your browser to allow installation from unknown sources, you grant the permission.

      When you install an APK directly like this as opposed to installing it from a package manager like F-Droid or Play Store, do you have to manually install upgrades when they’re available?

        In general, you do have to manually download and install updates. However, some apps will automatically check and download their own updates. Also, if the APK is available on a site such as Github or Gitlab, there is an app called Obtainium that you can use. It will notify you when an update is available, and download and install it for you if you choose: https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium
