Jul 4, 2025 4:13 AM

Samsung launched its Galaxy Note 8 last week amid much fanfare after months of rumors and speculations. The device brings with it a stellar camera setup along with a number of new features. While many have so far focused on the hardware of this new Note, Samsung also introduced latest edition of its apps. If you are someone who is on the fence to shell out $930 for the new device, you can still get some flavors of the new Note right on your Android devices.

Thanks to an XDA developer, you can now install Galaxy Note 8 apps right on your Samsung and Android devices. The only condition is that your device should be rooted and running Android 7.0 Nougat or a later version of Android. So far, the developer has ported 19 apps in this package:
