There is no way provided by Google to download applications on the Computer. But, a simple trick can do the Job. You’ll be able to download Apps. from Google Play directly to your computer and then transfer to your phone. Just follow the following steps to do the job:
You need Chrome browser to do the trick. If you don’t already have it, download and install it from here.

- Choose Shortcuts tab and add --ignore-certificate-errors --allow-running-insecure-content at the end of Target box and click OK/Apply. Note that you need to leave a space after chrome.exe(See Fig. Below)
- Close Chrome and Restart using the shortcut at the desktop.
- Open the Extension’s options page and fill up all the details. You will need the Device ID app. to find your Android device ID.
- Now, go to Google Play and further to the Application page of the App. you want to Download.
