Awesome app. It is somehow not listed on android-foss list so maybe someone didn’t know about it.
Obtainium allows you to install and update Open-Source Apps directly from their releases pages, and receive notifications when new releases are made available.

Awesome app. Specially good for fast developing apps like all the Lemmy clients popping up get updated faster than anywhere else.
Definetly!
Used it for the first time this week to install liftoff, it’s such a cool idea!
The idea is cool, no doubt. But the implementation is so good that I’m surprised. Praise to the developer! ❤️
It’s be nice if it would scan my apps and auto import.
Yeah, it would be great but really hard to implement.
And your can export import the app list, thing that you can’t do with F-Droid and makes a pain a smartphone change
Awesome ability!
Have you tried F-droid alternatives like Neo Store or Aurora Droid? Maybe they fit your needs.
I’m using NeoStore, it’s not bad, but the problem is when I get a new smartphone: there’s no way to export the list of the app that it installs, while with Obtanium it’s possible
Most of the time when I add a repository it says that it can’t find a suitable release (for example Signal or Nextcloud Deck). How can I solve this problem?
those repositories don’t offer .apk files in their releases
Oh, right! Thanks!
This! 😁
