    No, that would just require the permisson for the Epic Store to install APKs to be granted out of the box, no need for it to be a system app for that

      If the permission is granted, the native/session APK installer still handles every install and update, including its “Do you want to install/update this app?” popup. Only root and system apps can do installs and updates silently.

          Best suited for devices running below Android 4.4

          Root installer                 🔘

          Shell based installer using root permissions
