Install .apk, .ipa, .xap from a webpage.

Hi all,
I'm using Xamarin.Forms to build a checklists application on iOS, Android and Windows Phone.
Now we want to distribute it to our users without submitting it to the stores.
Users can easily access a webpage and click on a link to install the application.
On iOS we can achieve this by signing the .ipa file on XCode and put a link on the webpage.
On Android we put a link to the .apk file on the webpage and users have to turn on "Unknown Sources" in the phone security settings.
We haven't found a solution for Windows Phone.

Can anyone tell me if:
Is there any way to allow user to install .apk file from a webpage without obligating user to turn on Unknown Sources?
Is there a same way for Windows Phone .xap file?

Many thanks,
