F-Droid is an installable catalogue of free and open source applications for Android, distributed via a dedicated client app and a repository format you can host yourself. It provides a privacy-oriented alternative to mainstream app stores and includes tooling for building and publishing apps.

Key Features

  • Android client to browse, install, and update apps from F-Droid repositories
  • Curated FOSS catalog with version history and update tracking
  • Repository infrastructure (fdroidserver) to create and host your own app repo
  • Automated build and signing workflow for reproducible publishing of APKs
  • Support for multiple repositories and repository metadata for discovery and trust

Use Cases

  • Distribute internal Android apps within an organization via a private repository
  • Provide a public FOSS app catalog as an alternative Android app store
  • Maintain a controlled, privacy-focused app source for managed devices

F-Droid combines an Android app store experience with open tooling for running your own repositories, making it suitable for both end users and teams that need independent app distribution.
