In this case, the source is your Android web browser. You'll have to do this only once for your web browser, and you can then tap Install to run the APK and install the app.
If you need to access the install-unknown-apps setting again, you can find it by going to Settings then selecting Apps and notifications , the app in question usually your web browser , Advanced , and Install unknown apps. You can install apps from file-syncing services such as Dropbox, as long as you enable this feature for the relevant app. That's really all there is to it—the process might vary slightly if you're using something other than the stock version of Android 10, which is the latest version at the time of writing.

The biggest challenge with sideloading apps on Android is not how to do it, but making sure everything you install is safe: Android apps are given more rein on your device than they are on iOS, so the potential for an untrustworthy app to do damage or steal data is significantly higher—as long as you stick to known portals like APKMirror and known apps that are well established and widely used, you can minimize your risk.
For the more adventurous, rooting your Android phone is an option: This basically means hacking your Android phone to take off all its limits and restrictions, but it's not for the faint of heart. While it lets you give apps more control over your system— Titanium Backup , an excellent whole-device backup tool, is a good example—it's difficult to do, it's likely to break some of your favorite apps, and it leaves your phone more vulnerable from a security perspective.
Unless you have a very good reason, we'd recommend using the APK method rather than rooting to install non—Play Store apps.
