But we will include it now that you gave me the idea. Rahul Patel: It’s not available because nobody has asked for it yet -). : Why can’t I sort the repositories by the number of apps available and the number of downloads and popularity? Aurora App Store – new ideas and old problems Currently, Aurora allows you to check how many trackers and ads there are in an app. But, the Aurora Store gives you the opportunity to take a closer look at the app before installing it. At this point, we’re relying entirely on Google’s Play Protect guidelines. We don’t check apps for malicious behavior or sort out apps. Rahul Patel: Here it is very important to understand: The apps in the Aurora App Store are the same as in Google’s Play Store. By what means are apps or their updates checked for any malware by the team? But also the following question: “ What measures does Aurora take against apps that show harmful behavior if they have already been distributed and installed on the devices?“ : The Google Play Store is unfortunately full of apps that are infected with some malware. Not to mention the many supporters who help me with domains, servers and dummy accounts. But there are several designers who help me with the design of the app interfaces. Rahul Patel: Well, as a developer, I’m the only one who actually writes the code. : How many people work on Aurora, what do they do in detail? The Aurora Droid, is an alternative (open source) client for F-Droid, so it only supports FOSS apps, which is the main principle of F-Droid. (Explanation: Proprietary means that only the owner has access to the source code of the program.) Therefore, like Google’s Play Store, it includes all types of apps, proprietary and non-proprietary. Rahul Patel: Well, the Aurora App Store is an alternative (open source) client for the Google Play Store. What does that mean explicitly referring to the Aurora-Store or Aurora Droid ? : And to detect and remove possible bugs. Or even better, to participate actively in the development and thereby improve the quality of the software. What is also important to us is that everyone should have the opportunity to start their own open source project. Everyone should be able to check the code for themselves. Why only Open Source? Well, it’s because we wanted to be very transparent about what we were doing right from the start. Aurora OSS (Open Source Software) is, as the name suggests, a small collection of “ FOSS” or Open Source Apps. Rahul Patel: That’s an interesting question. : Why are only Open Source applications allowed? Is it primarily about security? Or rather by principle?

Aurora OSS: What does “OSS” mean and why Open Source?
