Basically as title describes, I noticed when I installed solvalley then deleted the .apk bc I didnt see the app icon, the game still worked. Can I do this for all my already installed VN's/games ?

With my android device's storage currently limited to 128gb, with 71 titles installed I'm starting to run low, this would be a life saver....of sorts >;D

Yes you can delete .apk after successful installation but be sure to run game once before deleting apk file in order to check if game is installed correctly or not

Man-kinder is correct. An apk file is just a zip archive, the install process decompresses it into an internal android folder on your device, so once that is done and working, the apk isn't needed.
