Few days ago, I tried to download some of the apps from my android phone and it was downloading smoothly but all of sudden a message popped up saying “App could not be downloaded due to an Error 926”. I was amazed seeing that message then I tried once more, but it showed the same message. I tried a couple of times but there was no sign of downloading, the same message was there on the screen, then I tried some of the method to get rid of this problem and finally I was able to fix the error. There may be lots of people who might also be facing the same problem. Now, don’t worry. Here I will show you some method to Fix Error 926 in Android.
