Title: google apps for android
Post by: Bobitis on October 08, 2018, 03:17:22 PM: Can someone explain how to do this? I've spent hours trying to get signed in and have had to create password after password.
I got the check engine light on my car and it appears to be that the gas cap was loose. I bought a 'fixd' device that's 'supposed to diagnose the light but requires an 'app'.

I go to google, enter my password (the latest version) and I get some unreadable text I'm supposed to type in (bot protection?). Sorry, but it's unreadable. And the 'listen here' sounds like someone from mars trying to invade Saturn...

I'm not the sharpest blade in the set, but really?....

Any help?

Then it wants me to decipher some gibberish that I can't possibly interpret. It looks like a bunch of letters that were tossed in goo with wavy patterns, and I'm supposed to interpret it. That's not happening. >:(

Then I have to start all over again, winding up in the goo... Again!

Is there another way, or do I simply give up?

Thanks bregent, but it doesn't werk.

Bob, what type of Android device are you using?

Are you saying that the Play Store doesn't work or show up on the Phone? I've seen that happen with my son's phone, and the only way we could find to resolve it was to do a factory reset.
