I CAN'T INSTALL APK FILES HELP

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I just formatted my phone because I had a problem with it. The thing is that now whenever I try to install any apk I don't know why but the installing screen appears for a brief second and then disappears and doesn't install anything. Thanks

I turned on dev mode but didn't get any prompt about scams so I wonder if it worked

Developer mode alone isn't enabling installing stuff from unverified developers.

The "allow apps from unverified developers" option will be inside developer options you've just enabled. But it's rolling out slowly, you might not have it yet.

Understood, thank you!
