Hey there! I’ve got some exciting news for you. Leapfrog has just released their latest and greatest tablet, the Leapfrog Epic 7. This tablet is seriously cool and it’s perfect for kids aged 3 to 9. It’s not like your average tablet, though. It’s designed to grow with your child, so you can add more age-appropriate content as they get older. How awesome is that?
Now, let’s talk about parental control. I know how important it is to keep an eye on what your child is doing on their tablet. With the Leapfrog Epic 7, you’ve got complete control. You can manage their playing time and decide what they can play and when. It’s a great way to make sure they’re having fun while still being responsible.
But that’s not all. This tablet is packed with amazing features. It’s got Leapfrog’s Just for Me Learning technology, which personalizes games to challenge your child as they grow. It’s got Bluetooth 4.0, so you can connect it to other devices. And check this out – it even has a built-in stylus!
Now, let’s talk about the apps. The Leapfrog Epic 7 comes with over 20 pre-installed Android apps for kids. And don’t worry, it’s got a kid-safe web browser called LeapSearch, so you can let your child explore the internet without any worries. And did I mention that it’s super durable? It’s got a protective bumper and a shatter-safe LCD screen, so it can handle anything your little one throws at it.
Are you curious about installing the Google Play app on your child’s Leapfrog Epic? Well, guess what? You totally can! It’s really simple to do, just follow the instructions below and you’ll have Google Play up and running in no time.
Step 1
First things first, you need to get to the parent screen. Just click on the Parents icon in the top right corner. Don’t forget to enter your parental lock code.
Note: Remember, you have to access the parent screen without logging into any account.
Step 2
Warning: This step involves installing apps from unknown sources. It’s important to be cautious and carefully examine the APK you’re installing. Make sure all APKs come from an official APK download site!
Having said that, you can now proceed to tap on the Device: Settings and Accounts option at the top right of the menu. Choose Device Settings and then select Security.
Step 3
Over on the lower right side, you’ll spot an option named Unknown Sources. Just tap on that and a box will pop up with a WARNING message. Don’t worry, this warning is here to help keep your device safe because installing apps from unknown sources can be risky. You’re probably familiar with all the talk about malware and other nasty stuff that can come with it.
If you’re still determined to go ahead, just tap Okay. Then, to go back to the menu, simply tap the back arrow twice.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to get some cool apps on your Leapfrog Epic. Tap on the App Center option right in the middle of the menu.
Note: If you don’t see App Center available on your Leapfrog Epic, you need to install the latest update in the System Updates section. Once you’re done with that, come back to this step.
Alright, now that you’re in the Leapfrog App Center, look for Other and tap on it. Guess what? Another WARNING box will appear. Take a moment to carefully read it and then tap Continue if you want to move forward. Oh, and just in case, there might be a second WARNING popping up, letting you know that the browser you’re trying to open is an open browser. Just read it and tap continue. That’s it!
Step 5
Now I’m going to guide you on how to get your hands on the Google Play Store for your Leapfrog Epic. Don’t worry, it’s really easy!
First things first, open your internet browser. Once it’s up and running, head over to a trusty APK download site. Remember, we’re only interested in official APK sites. A great one to check out is apkmirror.com. Type in “Google Play Store” in the search bar and hit enter. Find the latest version and download it straight to your Leapfrog Epic.
Step 6
Alright, now that the download is done, tap on the app to open it. Sometimes, you won’t see the downloads list, but don’t worry. Just go to the App Manager in the Parents menu and you’ll find the downloaded app there. A little box will pop up asking if you want to install it. Just hit “Yes” and you’re good to go!
Hey there! Take a look at this guide and follow along with me. When you’re ready, tap on Next, and then tap on Install. Once that’s done, you’ll see a message saying that the app has been installed.
Step 7
Now, the final step is to head over to Device Settings and Security one more time. You’ll want to disable installations from unknown sources. Just uncheck the box to remove that permission. Once that’s done, your device will be safe and secure again!
If It Doesn’t Work
In case your newly installed Google Play Store doesn’t work for some reason, or if it can’t download other apps to your Leapfrog Epic, don’t worry. You can use this guide to install any android app using its APK. Instead of using the Google Play Store, you’ll search for the APK of the app you want.
Note: Keep in mind that it’s a good idea to back up any data that you really don’t want to lose. Messing around with APK files can be risky, so make sure to be careful.

Your kid will be super excited to have this tablet on their own. You don’t even have to tell them that it’s an educational tool if you don’t want to.
