Google allows developers to block downloading and installing applications on devices, due to control issues, region-locking or device incompatibility. This is not always beneficial, since surely one or another device fully compatible with the application ends up being deprived of the download and installation.
New appliances also tend to suffer incompatibility issues.
The APK Downloader Extension developed by jackpf an XDA developer is an extension that allows users to download these restricted applications. The extension works with all Android browsers.

From Share menu, select APK Downloader Extension, and on the screen that opens, tap “get.” Wait that the download of the application is complete. Now just open the APK file to install the application.
