In this tutorial, we suggest to use apkmirror. Greenspector cannot be held responsible in the event of a security problem. We can only say that apkmirror is a good alternative to playstore with a serious community. Only community member can publish on the store, you just install an apk with the same signature as your chrome (the command ‘adb install’ will detect if the apk was not signed by google)
