Where can I get the android apk. Want to try on my RV head unit.
-
I'm a beta tester and I loaded an older apk on the head unit in my RV. Surprisingly it worked however I need the newest beta version to really test it out. Can some direct me to where I can download the apk? The play store will not allow me to load myroute app on the headunit so I need to manually copy the apk and manually install it.

@Bob-Petit [I'm assuming the head unit has Play Store on it.] If the head unit doesn't allow you to install it then it may well not work even if you do get the APK on there. Was there an error? What version of Android does the head unit run?
And skipping all that, you can download the app to your personal device (phone, tablet, etc) and then use a backup/restore type app from Play Store to back up the APK to a reachable place on your phone/tablet. Then copy it over to the RV head unit.
if you go that route go for a backup/restore app with plenty of stars (4* min, preferably 4.5*), and also plenty of reviews. Be prepared to agree to a heck of a lot of invasive permissions for it to do its work.

@richtea999 I'd rather not use any other apps to get the apk when I should be able to get it as a beta user. The play store doesn't allow it to download because it can't verify the compatibility of these new large screen head units. Since they have added the motorhome option, I want to start testing it. It may be a challenge to get it to work on the android head unit but it's worth trying since the older version works. The apk I loaded was the version just before they added the ability to search for places on android auto. 3 or 4 months ago.

@Bob-Petit Direct from Corjan is probably the only way then.
One helpful note from my Samsung - your phone may have a similar 'feature':

@Bob-Petit installing form the Play Store is really the only way
