Do you have a Huawei mobile without Google applications or do you want to buy one? The drawback of these terminals is that they do not have Google Play to download applications. Although they have App Gallery, which replaces the Google application store, we do not find a catalog as extensive as in the Play Store. WhatsApp, for example, is not available, although there are methods to download them. The same happens with Netflix: the streaming series and movies application cannot be downloaded from App Galler and, but there is a way to install it on your Huawei mobile without Google. We tell you how.
This trick works for all Huawei terminals that do not come with Google services. Specifically, these models: Huawei P40 Lite, Huawei P40, Huawei P40 Pro , Huawei Mate 30 Pro, Huawei Mate Xs. Currently, this method works and allows Netflix to run without any problem. Even in high resolution. However, we do not know if it will be available in the future, since it is not an official way to download the app, and Netflix could cover this method. Let's go with the steps.
First of all, you will need to download the Aurora Store. It is a client for Google Play that allows us to install applications from the Google store, but without the need for Google Play Services. Nor is it necessary to log in with our Google account. This app, which is quite reliable, downloads the latest APK available and keeps the app updated at all times. To download the latest version of Aurora Store, click here. Click where it says 'Download Latest Stable'
It will then be downloaded in the browser. The file will be saved in the 'Downloads' option, which you can find in the top menu. Install the app like any other application. The system will guide you through the steps. Once installed on your mobile, it will appear on the home screen.
Install Netflix from the Aurora Store
In Aurora Store we can log in with our Google account. Or, in the event that you do not trust to enter your personal account , as anonymous . The interface is very similar to that of Google Play. We just have to click on the search engine and type 'Netflix'. Select the first option. On the app page you can check who the developer is (in this case Netflix Inc.) and what is the latest version available. To download it to your Huawei, click on the 'Install' button.
A new window will open for the APK installation. Click on the button that says 'Allow'. Next, click where it says 'Install'. The application will install quickly. Now, you can log into Netflix just like any other device. No alerts will appear and you will be able to see the content in high resolution. In addition to downloading series. We can also use the 'Picture-inPicture' function. that is, the one that applies a small player window while we navigate through the terminal. The only function that we lose is to send the content to our Chromecast, since it does not have this option due to the absence of Google services.
If you've tried downloading an APK from Netflix , you'll see that the file can't be opened or run properly. Don't download an APK with an old version. Although they work on these terminals, they do not have the latest features, such as the ability to download chapters or movies.
