Droid Is downgrading free Android apps via old APKs allowed?

Hi everyone! I have a question regarding the Unified Achievement Hunting Rules (UAHR) and Android/Google Play Games achievements.

A mobile game I am currently playing recently removed Google Play Games integration in its latest update. However, the achievements used to work perfectly fine just a few versions ago. I know that UAHR officially allows downgrading games on PC as long as it's done via official channels like Steam Depots. But since Google Play doesn't provide a built-in feature to download older , I am a bit confused about how this applies to Android.

If the game in question is completely free-to-play, would it be considered a rules violation to download and install a clean, older version of the APK from public archives (like APKMirror) strictly for the purpose of unlocking the missing achievements?

I want to keep my profile 100% clean and legit, so I would really appreciate some clarification from the staff or experienced members.
