i will never buy it from google. cause i already did from microsoft. i can setup minecraft.apk on my phone. i can login microsoft, and get in the servers. is there a way to say mcpelauncher "hey, you can get application data from path/to/minecraft.apk" ?

For both Minecraft Trial & Edu is this planned, for all other use cases please look for alternatives like installing Android x86 or Windows 11 etc.

But they're both free versions. İf the app is like waydroid, installing apks should possible @ChristopherHX

This app is not like waydroid, this is a heavy Minecraft Android Mod that uses techniques like wine to run it in a native linux/macOS process.

Additionally this app modifies parts of the game that are in legal grey zone, therefore allowing you and anyone else to use this app via apk import of the paid apk (without owning that one on google play) is illegal in my country and have legal consequences for me not limiting to termination of this app as a whole

The Trial allows you to try this out without paying anything, in case you thing this app would be scam or not trustworthy

Trial Apk Import is available in nightly, importing a paid app is rejected.

I admit, this is still broken without a logged in google account

Apks provided by third party sites that are neither amazon / google / mojang are obviously scam if they are not signed by one of the mentioned.

Many apk's that can be found are for arm phones not intel laptops and are modified with potential harmful changes.

That's how it will look in 24h in nightly image

What you have asked for won't happen for paid apk's
