Aptoide became the first third-party app store officially available for direct download through Google Play, initially in the United States. 
This development is a direct result of Google's legal dispute with Epic Games and new antitrust requirements that force the company to allow competing stores on its platform.
Important information
Aptoide (specifically the Aptoide Games version) is now available by simply searching and installing on Google Play, without the need to manually download APK files (sideloading).
The change stems from Judge James Donato's ruling, following the networking of the Play Catalog Access Program.
Alternative stores are integrated into Google Play's secure environment and comply with its security rules.
Although the press releases will range from very select to rare, I said I'd pass...because sometimes the editors hide.
