First, download the appropriate GApps zip file package to your device’s SD card storage. If your device does not support an SD card, you can save the zip file where you remember it in your local store.
Boot into the TWRP recovery page and choose the install option.
Now choose the recently downloaded GApps zip package.
Slide the slider to the right to install the GApps package.
Once the process is complete, Click on wipe Dalvik cache as well.
There are other methods to install GApps, but TWRP methods remained the easiest and safest. We recommend our users use TWRP for any zip flashing needs.
After the TWRP process, GApps will be installed on your device. Please note that your device may take a little longer to boot after flashing is complete. Once the reboot is done, all the apps from GApps, such as Gmail, Playstore, Maps, etc., will be available on your Android device.
