So I bought an app on GP because that was the only place that had it. I would like to be able to back it up for various reasons one of which is sometimes they update apps on GP and ruin things. I want to be able to have older versions in case I need them. I tried a couple of those "APK extractor" apps but they don't work for many things. The app I want to back up now is one that doesn't work with the GP APK extractor. Is there an app or method to back up to APK file that works with everything?

Good chance you`ll need to have a rooted phone to be able to extract it properly

Search (here) for 'My APK' - it might do the trick.
