I've been trying to add apps to my Timmkoo Q3E, just things such as a notes app, but I'm pretty much a beginner. The most experience I've ever had is getting Google Play on a fire kindle with APKs. Does anybody have any ideas? Whenever I try to add APKs or .exe files it doesn't seem to work.

That is an MP3 player, not an Android device, yes?

Yes, it's an mp3 player, not an Android. So there isn't an app store.

Welcome to Android Central! I made you the owner of the original guest post to make it easier for you to find.

Tinkering with a device like that would require quite a bit of experience. Since you say you're a beginner, I would not recommend pursuing this possibility. There are many inexpensive options for a decent Android phone, so it'd be better to go that route.

Welcome to AC!
Ahh ok thanks for verifying that

Apk's are specific to the Android OS, and exe's are specific to Windows OS. This device has a custom OS, so only its own apps would work on it. It would be theoretically possible to flash Android to it, but would require writing a custom Android version from scratch, possibly including a translation layer so it knows how to talk to the processor. Even if you overcome that substantial hurdle, the specs on that device are abysmal for running anything Android based on it, assuming it has the power to run it at all.
