How to Install MicroG APK on Android (2026 Guide)
Step-by-step instructions to install the latest MicroG APK on LineageOS, /e/OS, CalyxOS and other AOSP-based ROMs.
Installing MicroG takes about 10 minutes on a supported ROM. The hardest part is making sure your ROM supports signature spoofing — without it, MicroG cannot pretend to be Google Play Services and most apps will fail.
Step 1: Pick a ROM. LineageOS for MicroG, /e/OS, CalyxOS and iodéOS all ship with signature spoofing enabled. Stock Android does not.
Step 2: Download three APKs from microg.cc/download — GmsCore (the brain), GSF Proxy (legacy compatibility) and Companion FakeStore (license verification).
Step 3: Install all three APKs with the package installer or adb. Open MicroG Settings, grant the Fake Signature permission and run Self-Check until every row is green.
Step 4 (optional): Add a Google account in MicroG Settings if you need FCM push or Google Sign-In. Otherwise, skip it.
That's it — your ROM now has a free, transparent replacement for Google Play Services.
