Yalp store has default credentials for Play, and it has difficulty loading "split" APKs. I have Chrome installed, and I use Yalp's manual download to get updates for it, then trigger the updates from my downloads folder. If I were using Webview instead, this wouldn't be required.

LineageOS really should find a way of making Webview available for people who do not load Play/gapps - MicroG is the only way to run an up to date webview if gapps is not present.

There are also two versions of the "Aurora Store" in F-Droid. These require your Google account at startup, and they supposedly handle the split APKs.

Yalp does warn that using your own credentials is a violation of Google's terms of service. Because of this, I have never given these credentials to Aurora.

Aurora does not require using your own credentials; there's an "anonymous" button on the login page. It does support split APKs, and has completely replaced Yalp for my uses.

I'm not following. What does WebView have to do with MicroG / Gapps? I'm asking in particular because:

1. WebView comes pre-installed on LineageOS, irrespective of whether you install Gapps

2. WebView can be downloaded separately from the Play Store
