Are there any good third-party Android stores? My (dated) experience is that it's only Amazon and hundreds of pirate sites.
- _-david-_ 5y agoFdroid is ok. Not the best, but it does function.
- jpetso 5y agoThere is F-Droid, which is a terrible client app but provides (non-Amazon, non-pirate) open source software such as NewPipe, Simple Notes or DavX.
- altantiprocrast 5y agoFoxydroid is a really nice and imo much faster F-Droid frontend https://f-droid.org/en/packages/nya.kitsunyan.foxydroid/ https://f-droid.org/en/packages/nya.kitsunyan.foxydroid/ (not affiliated just a big fan)
- commoner 5y agoThere's also Aurora Droid, an F-Droid client developed by the creator of Aurora Store. https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.aurora.adroid/ https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.aurora.adroid/ It's currently being rewritten to match Aurora Store v4's interface.
- neltnerb 5y agoI think that these demands should require the built-in app store to support an interoperable feed to other sources. I think that they do but not clearly enough. I doubt Google would interpret it that way, but that would be the fair way to do it. Make it so that the information is interoperable rather than just not actively disallowing it. Then it can stop being a monopoly.
- BiteCode_dev 5y agoApkpure and fdroid.
- Y_Y 5y agoWeChat is pretty much an app store (among many other things).
