To fix There was a problem parsing the package, when trying to install Android apps, just try to change the minimum sdk version number.
You can change the min SDK version through APK parser app.
Now as shown in the above image, install that app and click on select apk from app ( second option).
Now choose which app you are facing there was a problem parsing the package. Click on files option at the bottom, there you will find Android manifest.xml file, click on that.
As you see in the above image minimum SDK version is set to 21. For example if your mobile Android version is not compatible to 21 say like it maybe 15, then you may observe this error like can’t parse this APK. Just change that minimum sdk number to a lower number something like 15.
