If a promo requires a google play download, would it also be valid if I rerouted it to Aurora? (self.degoogle)

Say a friend of mine has one of those dumb mobile game sponsorships, and if he gets 10 people to download the game through the play store, he gets paid. But instead it opens my browser where I tell it to open with Aurora store and download from there. Would that still count as a download with that code or not? Does that make sense?

Or is that still tracking no matter which store it is and where you download is moot?

Depends on the app, some require a Google account and/or a certified OS. You'll have to try it.
