Split APKs Installer, commonly referred to as SAI, is a specialized application designed for the Android platform that facilitates the installation of split APK files. This app allows users to manage and install applications that consist of multiple APK files, providing a streamlined experience for those who require specific app configurations or versions.
SAI is particularly beneficial for users who are interested in installing apps that are not available in a single APK format. With its advanced capabilities, SAI supports split APK installations, enabling the use of apps that are packaged with different components to enhance their functionality. It is especially useful for developers and tech-savvy users who need to work with various app configurations or test applications in different environments.
The installation process through SAI can be accomplished in several ways. Users can choose to install apps using the standard Android API, which is straightforward and doesn’t require any special permissions. For those who have rooted devices, SAI offers the option to utilize root access for installations, which may provide additional functionality and flexibility. Additionally, the app can operate using Shizuku, an interface that allows for running apps with certain elevated permissions without needing root access.
