Download GApps for Custom ROM (Updated 2025)

Google Apps or GApps is a proprietary core app set by Google that comes inbuilt into almost all phones and tablets at the time of purchase. They consist of apps like Google Play Store, Gmail, YouTube, Google Maps, Keep, Search, Photos, Drive, Calendar, Sync, Backup, Voice, Contacts, Play Music, and much more.

These apps are always running on your Android phone under the process of com.google.process.gapps. Most of these Google apps can now be easily found and updated via the Google Play Store. These apps are not preloaded in custom ROM packages since they are officially owned by Google, breaking the licensing restrictions. It is therefore required that you flash them separately.

When it comes to custom ROMs, we can choose which Google Apps we want depending upon the various packages available out there: aroma, super, stock, full, mini, micro, nano, and pico. To save you time, we have made a list of all the available versions of Google Apps as per their requisite Android versions. The links are categorized according to Lineage OS/CyanogenMod ROMs.

However, you can use it with most of the AOSP-based custom ROMs such as CyanogenMod, Lineage, Paranoid Android, Resurrection Remix, Slim, Carbon, Mokee, etc. Whether it is Android 9 Pie, Android 8.0 Oreo, Android 7.0 Nougat, Android 6.0 Marshmallow, Android 5.0 Lollipop, or Android 4.4 KitKat, here, you’ll get the latest Google Apps for any Android version.

Disclaimer

When installing these Google Apps, make sure that you install the version that matches your Android ROM to avoid the “com.google.process.gapps has stopped working” type error. For example, if you are running Android 7.0 Nougat, download and install Google apps for Nougat.

Confirm your Android version from Menu > Apps > Settings > About Phone. Also, do not install these Google apps from stock recovery, or you might get a “signature verification” error.

Which GApps Package (ARM, ARM64, or x86) to choose from?

Check which ARM, ARM64, OR x86 Processor your Android phone uses.
