For Android 8.0 and above, you need to add permissions in the manifest.

Just add <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES"/> to the AndroidManifest.template.xml file
.

Use TPath to process paths (cross-platform paths should be written using the things provided in System.IOUtils).

For example,
APK := TPath.Combine(TPath.GetTempPath, 'new.apk');

download('server://foo /bar/new.apk', APK); // save as APK

InstallAPK(APK);

The path on the Android platform follows *nix rules, and no prefix is ​​required in your own application.
