Recently I wondered why Google doesn’t restrict the installation of apps only from Google Play? What stops them from doing this? I think making Android iOS would increase their profit

      Not sure what they’re referring to, but there are a number of warnings when you install an APK and you have to enable a setting to allow you to install an APK. It’s not challenging or restrictive, but a user who is unfamiliar might be discouraged from installing an app this way after seeing the warnings.
