Apkmirror to get AA compatible app builds or Google Playstore
APK's are android applications, and APKMirror is a third-party alternative to getting them from the Play store. I have used APKMirror extensively and have never had a problem, but you're right to be wary installing things from third parties.
If the apk is signed and the signature is indeed from CodeWeavers then it is safe to install.
read Apkmirror FAQS FIRST

determine which apk is compatible with your AA setup
Is it OK to install arm64 apps on an 32-bit arm device? What about 32-bit arm apps on an arm64 device? Likewise, for x86 and x86_64?
Note: Up until late 2022, 64-bit OSes were backward compatible with 32-bit ones, so you should have had no issues installing APKs with 32-bit arm libs on arm64 devices. However, the Pixel 7 series and likely many future devices removed 32-bit support, so they would only be able to run 64-bit apps.
32-bit APKs installed on 64-bit devices (if your 64-bit device supports 32-bit apps) may not be as optimized, so if you have a 64-bit device, install a 64-bit APK when it becomes available, if it exists at all.
So:
- arm on arm device: OK.
- arm64 on arm device: Nope.
- arm on arm64 device: may be OK, see the note above.
- arm64 on arm64 device: OK
Same for x86 and x86_64, mips and mips64, etc.
