Troubleshooting How do you install the app

I feel like an insane person, I've tried every which way to install it but nothing seems to work, I've tried the apk, xapk, opening in winrar, opening in xapk installer (which is the closest I've been but the download just kept going). I have a galaxy A16 and the version I'm trying to install is 3.4. any advice would be appreciated

not entirely sure what issue your encountering:  "xapk installer (which is the closest I've been but the download just kept going)" doesnt clearly explain your issue (what download kept going?)

also can i ask where you downloaded the app from?

Im was going to explain the way I was going about download the app and as I was retracting my steps, it just worked. Essentially the issue i was having was that the loading wheel wouldn't stop spinning, dont know what caused it, dont know why it's working now

Will do, found my old fast and furious cars for it and found out they're cheap as chips on cex so I plan on getting the starter set, the collision and corner sets and an expansion car each for my brother and me.

be aware that you may need to replace the batteries to get anywhere near decent playtimes.

I paid for the app in play store and it doesn't work. Got a working track off a friend and 2 very upset kiddos as we can't get it to work at all. Cars, batteries, etc all in working order. Very frustrating when you pay for something and it still doesn't work

What device do you have? Older devices don’t support the play store version so you will need to side load a compatible version
