Phone not installing apk files

Well "App not installed", I think can mean either the APK is corrupted or truncated, or it's incompatible with your phone. To fix, check the APK integrity is OK, and if necessary re-download it, or ensure that the version is compatible with your LG K8 LTE.

Some devices require you to use the built-in file or download manager to successfully install apps

That had happened to me before..I suggest first look for the same app but an older version that is already installed on your phone..look through your list of apps..it might be one between of the freezed ones..
Hope this helps.

you must have an antivirus installed in your mobile which may have interfering with the installation.
