How to install Sberbank Online, Tinkoff, Alfa-Bank and similar applications on Android

Android smartphone owners can download applications not only from the official Google Play store, but also from third-party marketplaces of other companies or run the installation directly from those downloaded to the device files. At the same time, the method described below is suitable for most programs that have disappeared from the Google store.

To install the desired application, for example, SberBank Online, you must do the following:

1. Go to the official website of Sberbank in mobile app section and download the APK file with the latest official version of the program by clicking on the appropriate button.
2. After downloading the app to your device, run the installation.
3. Allow the program to be installed from the source you are using smartphone settings. You may need to activate the "Unknown Sources" option in the "Settings" → "Security" section of the system.

You can also download and install the same program from alternative stores: AppGallery, Galaxy Store, GetApps and RuStore. They may even come pre-installed out of the box on some models.

How to install Sberbank Online, Tinkoff, Alfa-Bank and similar applications on iPhone

If at the time of the disappearance of the application of the desired bank from the App Store it was not on your device, then it will not be easy to download it. Apple prohibits the installation of programs on its gadgets from third-party sources. Copies of removed applications under other names periodically appear in the official store, but they are quickly removed. You should not rely on such versions.

A reliable solution to the problem is to contact a specialist at one of the bank's offices. But you can do it on your own. Next, we will consider the steps that will help you independently install or restore the desired iOS application using the example of SberBank Online.

Almost the same steps can be applied to other programs removed from the App Store. Use this method for applications of any banks and services.

Prepare an Apple ID account with the app already installed

If you have installed SberBank Online on your iPhone before, then the application is already in your user media library. In this case, it will be possible to extract it. Will need to connect new device to a valid Apple ID that is associated with the old gadget.

But for your first iPhone without an Apple ID, the application will have to be copied from the device of another person on which it is available. It is best to ask friends or colleagues to provide you with a smartphone so that you can transfer the program to a new device.

Install iMazing on your computer

Download and install the program on your computer from official website. iMazing is an app that impersonates iTunes, but from a different developer. With the help of the program, you can create backup copies of the entire smartphone and manage them, view the files stored in memory, as well as transfer data between devices. iMazing supports Windows and macOS.

This tool only allows you to download apps that are already installed on another device. When you first open iMazing, you will be prompted to purchase the premium version. But the necessary functions for transferring programs are also available in the free one.

Connect iPhone to iMazing

To start, you need to connect your iPhone to your computer via USB and launch iMazing. But your actions will depend on which smartphone you are going to copy the application from.

If on your old iPhone with current Apple ID has already been installed the desired program, in this case, connect a new smartphone to the PC. After pairing, click the "Trust" button so that the computer can access the files on the gadget. iMazing will offer to back up your iPhone, but this is optional. Click on the "Later" button - the program menu will open. Next, go to the Application Management section.

If you have never used an Apple device, you have a new Apple ID account without the required program, then first you need to connect the borrowed device, which already has the desired application. With it, you need to repeat the steps described above and go to "Application Management".

Transfer an app from your library to your device

To begin with, we will analyze further actions if the SberBank Online application (or another necessary one) was previously installed on your old device.

1. Go to the "Library" tab and find the program of interest using the search bar at the bottom of the screen. In the line with the detected application, click on the download icon - a cloud with an arrow. The program is installed on a computer.

2. After that, the checkmark icon on the line will turn green. Right-click on it and select "Install to Device". The program will ask you to enter your Apple ID password, as well as confirm two-factor authentication code if you have activated such protection.

The application you need, for example, Sberbank Online, will download and appear on your smartphone. After that, you can disconnect the device and use the installed program as usual.

If the bank application was not on your old iPhone, or if you are using Apple technology for the first time, proceed as follows:

1. In the "Manage applications" menu on the "Device" tab, find the program using the search bar at the bottom of the screen. Then drag the application icon to the desktop with the mouse. iMazing will notify you that this operation does not work with all programs. Click the OK button. Next, the copying process will begin.

2. Please wait while iMazing backs up your device. After that, an application file with the imazingapp extension will appear on the desktop of your computer.

3. Leave iMazing open and connect your new iPhone to your PC to which you want to transfer the downloaded app. From the main menu this time select "Quick Transfer". In the window that opens, move the program icon from the desktop. Click on the "Transfer" button in the lower right corner of the screen. After that, a notification will appear that iMazing will restore the data and will restart the smartphone. Click Continue.

4. Next, you need to enter your Apple ID details and go through two-factor authentication, if it is active.

As a result, iMazing will transfer the application from the computer to the iPhone, after which the device will automatically reboot. Then the program can be used.

Take care of device security

In addition to iMazing, there is also another way to install remote apps on iOS - through alternative stores or altstores like Scarlet and AltStore. But in this case, you will be downloading unknown versions of programs that can be modified by intruders. Therefore, it is better not to use this method, especially for banking.

Even after using iMazing, it is advisable to update the password on Apple ID. Replace it after you transfer the necessary applications to your smartphone.

You will not be able to update the programs installed in this way due to their absence in the App Store.
