which makes the force install process

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSTALL_PACKAGE);

            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
                intent.setDataAndType(getUriFromFile(location), "application/vnd.android.package-archive");

                List<ResolveInfo> resInfoList = context.getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(intent, PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);
                for (ResolveInfo resolveInfo : resInfoList) {
                    String packageName = resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName;
                    context.grantUriPermission(packageName, getUriFromFile(location), Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION | Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);

                intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION | Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);

                intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
                intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_NOT_UNKNOWN_SOURCE, true);
                intent.setDataAndType(getUriFromFile(location), "application/vnd.android.package-archive");
                intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);

Unfortunately, you can't update without showing a dialog. But after you show the dialog and get the permission, you can make the application update in the background and you can inform the user with callback. The solution in this issue may be useful to you. link

No. Imagine if malware could force install anything they want without a confirmation. That's why you can't either.
