I know this is may or may not be possible,but I just want to confirm is it possible in android or not?

So here it goes,Let's say I have an android app ( example my_app.apk) ,I copied my_app.apk from my computer or through pendrive or downloaded from website to my android device( let's say I copied to /sdcard/).I have also activated install app from unknown sources in my phone settings.

Now is there any way through which I can make the App to auto install on the device as soon as I copied to /sdcard folder? I mean my_app.apk should kick auto installation on the device without user navigating to /sdcard of the device and selecting the app and clicking the install option.

I just want to know is this possible in Android? if Yes how can I achieve that? I don't want to use other third party applications to kick off installation,instead the app should kick installation itself as soon as it gets copied to /sdcard folder.

Any help would be appreciated.

I think that is not possible. It is possible to have Android app which checks some folders and detects new file and automatically install new apk files. To install apk package ordinary (from SD card) you should activated installing from Unknown sources in settings. Auto instalation packages aren't possible, because it could be security problem.
