Download & Install The Playbox HD Apk

Since we are going to be installing the app via an .apk file (android application package), You will need to first enable unknown sources on your Android device. For what it’s worth, this step is required for installing ANY app outside of the Google Play store.

1.) Navigate to: Settings -> Security & enable “Unknown sources“.

Enable Unknown Sources on Android device.

2.) Download the latest PlayBox .apk file.

4.) When the install is complete, You can access Playbox on your home screen or under “All Applications”.

Will Playbox work on my Mac/PC?

Yes! While you can’t install the android .apk file directly to your PC, there are several pieces of software out there that allow you to create a virtual Android operating system. I’ve chosen to use AndyOS for its incredibly streamlined install process and because it supports Playbox for Windows & Mac.

  1. Download & install the latest version of AndyOS
  2. When the install is complete, It will automatically boot into your virtualized Android OS.

  3. Now go ahead and download the latest version of the Playbox download. (If you haven’t already)
  4. With Andy OS running, double click the .apk file to begin installing the Play Box app.
  5. That’s it! You should now be able to access  the Play Box movie app from your virtual Android device.

 

Troubleshooting

Something not working the way it should? Chances are that myself or someone else who frequents this blog has encountered the same problem at some point. I encourage you to leave a comment at the end of this article and to help others with their own issues. That being said, most issues can be resolved by simply updating to the latest version of the Playbox app, rebooting your device or re-installing the app. For you PC & Mac users, I also highly recommend updating to the latest version of your Android emulation software or trying a few alternatives (Checkout Bluestacks & Genymotion). Finally, There is a great list of troubleshooting tips on my Showbox posts for you to try.

Still No Luck?

PlayBox is a great app! But just like the other popular streaming apps it can’t quite claim 100% up-time. Sometimes a server goes down or you are forced to wait for the developers to resolve a new bug or error. While the devs are always very quick to respond to outages, it isn’t unheard of to experience errors or crashes for a few days before a new patch or update gets released. Here is a list of some other great Streaming apps & services to make sure you can get your media fix, no matter what. I hope you found this guide useful & were able to get your Playbox Hd download working!
~Happy Streaming Everyone
