Here, I would like you to follow some simple tricks in other to achieve this. It only requires

1. Updated WhatsApp
2. File Manager
3. Android App or Game 

Why would you share Android apps using WhatsApp?

• If you want to send your personal/company’s app to a friend
• When your friend has no access to Play Store
• When links direct to the app/game are broken or affiliated with survey ads

WhatsApp default file size limit for attachments like videos/audio is 16MB but you have no need to worry about size here. In case you have not back up your Android app into a shareable APK file, you should use Super Backup to do that very quickly.

Lets assume you are ready to explore!

Steps to sharing Android Apps and Games using WhatsApp.
