About IzzyOnDroid

IzzyOnDroid is a repository you add to an F-Droid client, either by scanning its QR code or by entering the repository URL. It currently serves close to 1,400 apps, many of them not available in the main F-Droid repository.

Apps are the official binaries published by their developers on GitHub, GitLab or Codeberg, with additional screening applied. Updates are usually fetched daily and the index is refreshed daily. The website lets you browse and filter apps by category, license, anti-features and update date.

Strengths

Alternatives to IzzyOnDroid

Compare all

Software that can replace IzzyOnDroid for an important use case, and what changes if you switch.

  • F-Droid

    An app store and client for free and open-source Android apps that works without a Google account.

    F-Droid's main repository builds apps from source itself rather than using developer builds, and it ships its own client instead of needing a separate one.

  • Zapstore

    An open Android app store built on Nostr where each release is signed by its developer.

    Zapstore also distributes developer-signed releases but through a Nostr-based open source store app with more than 3,000 apps and direct tipping.

  • Accrescent

    An open-source Android app store focused on security and privacy, with pinned signing keys and signed metadata.

    Accrescent distributes developer-signed apps through its own open source client with signing key pinning, but it is in alpha with a small catalogue.
