What are Google GApps?
Custom ROMs are supposed to bloatware free. For this reason, the developers of custom ROMs do not add any application. They don’t even add essential applications like the Google Play Services, Google Play Store, Google Play Games etc.
To bring such applications in your custom ROM, you have to get the appropriate package of the Google GApps. Back in the day, there used to be only one or two packages of the Google GApps which included all the apps by Google. In fact, back in those days, there used to be only a few Google Applications which were good enough to run your Android phone.
With the growing number of Google applications, the GApps developers started making different Google GApps. The packages now range from a 100 MB to 1 GB in size. The classification of each package is defined to let the users easily pick up their desired GApps file. To understand the Open GApps packages, you can take a look at the table given below.
