sideload
Install without storefront
Sideload is to install software on a device by bypassing the official app store or distribution channel.
The term emerged with smartphones, where manufacturers restrict installations to approved marketplaces: I sideloaded the app since it wasn't available in the Play Store.
Sideloading gives users more control but may compromise security or void warranties.
