Tongbu Android

Download apps to your Android phone

Although there are hundreds of thousands of applications that are ready to be downloaded from the Google Play Store, the official Android market doesn't contain absolutely everything. There are other marketplaces of the likes of Tongbu, a Chinese app stores.

An interesting alternative app store

Here, we'll find all the contents sorted into three categories: collections, games, and apps. We can access them to browse through their subcategories to download any kind of APK. There's no need to sign up as a user but we can do so to keep a stricter control of our activity in the store, as well as to receive customized recommendations.

It also comes along with an application manager that offers us the following functions:

• Download manager: we can control the apps we're downloading.
• Update manager: from here we can indicate which apps we want to update and when.
• Uninstaller: we can use it to remove any app installed on our device, even if we haven't downloaded it from Tongbu Tui.

Regarding whether it's the best store to download applications... here we'll find very interesting and peculiar things but the more Chinese you know, the better. In any case, you can also resort to Malavida to download APKs. By the way, this store also has its own version for iPhone.

Requirements and additional information:

• Minimum operating system requirements: Android 2.3.
• The installation of the app by means of the APK file requires the activation of the "Unknown sources" option within Settings>Applications.
