Frequently Asked QuestionsYes. The app, the source code, and the backend are all open source under Apache 2.0.

-

How is GitHub Store different from F-Droid?

 -

F-Droid only includes apps in its curated FOSS-only repository. GitHub Store discovers and installs apps directly from GitHub releases — including apps not in F-Droid.

+

Which platforms does GitHub Store support?

 +

Android, Windows, macOS, and Linux. The codebase is shared across all four via Kotlin Multiplatform and Compose Multiplatform.

-

How is GitHub Store different from Obtainium?

 -

Obtainium is a power-user updater for tracked GitHub repos. GitHub Store adds a discovery layer (browse trending, popular, hot releases), an install layer (Shizuku/Dhizuku silent install), and works on Desktop too. You can import your Obtainium library with one tap.

+

How does GitHub Store keep installs current?

 +

GitHub Store remembers what you installed and surfaces new releases automatically. On Android you can opt in to silent updates via Shizuku, Sui, or Dhizuku. Auto-update verifies the signing fingerprint matches the originally-installed key before applying any update.

Does GitHub Store work in China?

One paragraph

GitHub Store is a free, open-source app store for GitHub releases — built by a single 17-year-old developer, Usmon Narzullayev, in Uzbekistan. It runs on Android, Windows, macOS, and Linux from a shared Kotlin Multiplatform / Compose Multiplatform codebase, and is licensed under Apache-2.0.

-

The app provides three things GitHub itself does not: a discovery layer (trending, popular, hot releases, with platform-aware ranking), an install layer (one-tap, with optional Shizuku, Sui, or Dhizuku silent install on Android), and a verified update layer (SHA-256 against GitHub's published digests, auto-update blocked on signing-key mismatch). It can also import Obtainium libraries and recognise GitHub-sourced apps already installed on the device.

-

Unlike F-Droid, GitHub Store does not maintain its own curated repository — it indexes the live GitHub Search API, surfaces only repos that ship installable binaries, and falls back to direct GitHub when the curated index lags. Unlike Obtainium, GitHub Store is cross-platform, has discovery built in, and works on Desktop. Its backend (also Apache-2.0, also self-hostable) runs in the EU, hashes search queries client-side, and stores no IP-linked logs.
