I'm trying to update my app without the playstore. I've downloaded the APK of the server and set it to a folder.
I'm using the code below but I can't figure out why I don't get a popup which asks to install. Any thoughts?

B4X:
out = File.OpenOutput(File.dirinternal,APK_Filename,False)
    File.Copy2(In,out)
    out.Close
    If File.Exists(File.dirinternal,APK_Filename) = True Then
        File.Copy(File.dirinternal, APK_Filename, Com.Provider.SharedFolder, APK_Filename)
      
        Dim iIntent As Intent
        iIntent.Initialize(iIntent.ACTION_VIEW,"" )
        Com.Provider.SetFileUriAsIntentData(iIntent, APK_Filename)
        'Type must be set after calling SetFileUriAsIntentData
        iIntent.SetType("application/vnd.android.package-archive")
        StartActivity(iIntent)
    End If

Unfiltered logs (see "Spoiler") mention something about "whitelist"?

Did you enable the "Install unknown apps" setting? Also, another clue in your logs:
Requesting uid 10096 needs to declare permission android.permission.REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES
