Possible to get apk from google play store?

Hi - I'm looking to use an app that I paid for in the play store in a non-google profile. Is this possible? Thanks!

Needs to perform license check, so unless you can purchase license from their website, then no.

thanks for the reply. I didn't know google also authenticates a paid app (as opposed to just providing paid apk).

Not every app has a license check. I bought an app via play store on my old Huawei two weeks ago, extracted the apk and installed it on my Pixel without Google Service.
Works like a charm.

I've used https://github.com/apk-editor/APK-Explorer-Editor from F-Droid to do this, but it should also work with other tools.

Just be aware, that some apps might have another check or depend on google services.
