Lineage is great. One thing I wish we had, though, is a repo (F-Droid?) where you could download individual Lineage apps for use on non-Lineage Android.

- Night_Thastus 3y agoI've never used Lineage, but this is part of my question. Can you use the ordinary app store to download apps as you can on a normal Android phone? Or do you need to do some shuffle of downloading them on a PC and transferring some kind of apk file to install it on the phone manually. Do most apps work 'out of the box', or are there incompatibilities?

- foresto 3y agoGoogle Play works if present, as do apps installed from it. Some people prefer to exclude it for privacy reasons. I don't know if the official Lineage builds include it, as I am one such person, but it's available here: https://opengapps.org/ https://opengapps.org/
