FAQ

Why the name "Aurora" Store?

Initially, Aurora Store was named Galaxy Store. Some people thought we were trying to clickbait by using Samsung's "Galaxy" likeness (False, btw). Because of this we have decided to drop the Galaxy name in place of Aurora.

What is the difference between Aurora Store and Google's Play store?

Unlike Google's Play Store, Aurora Store doesn't track your downloads or the apps you use. We respect your privacy. Aurora Store is also unaffected by Google marking your device as uncertified or lacking of necessary Google apps. Play Protect is not present, as this is a Play Store only feature.

Is Aurora Store a fork of YalpStore?

Technically, no. Aurora Store v3 is written from scratch, and Aurora Store v4 is a rewrite of v3 in Kotlin, but it does share some code from YalpStore.

Do I need Google Play Services to use Aurora Store?

No. Aurora Store was built to access the Google Play store without any kind of Google services. It doesn't matter if you use it with or without Google Play Services/MicroG.

What is the FakeStore?

Some poorly-designed apps detect if Google Play is missing and punish the user by misbehaving. The FakeStore is a stub that disguises itself as the Play store: FakeStore shares the same package name as the Play store com.android.vending. This prevents some apps from crashing.

Is it safe to use Aurora store?

Aurora Store is fully open-source and verified by F-Droid. If you're asking about the safety of the apps in the store, those are the exact same ones the Play Store would load and display. A lot of dangerous stuff seems to sneak past Google though, so as a rule of thumb, don't download anything which you're unsure about.
