About

The client for everything described on this site: browse every official and added Store source together, then install, update and configure apps, widgets and themes from the same window.

What it does

  • Browse every Store source as one category tree, with official items preferred when sources contain the same item.
  • See whether an item comes from the official Store or an added source, and search all sources from one box.
  • Update every compatible item in one run, with one backend approval and any failed update left available to retry.
  • Download the newest available copy of an installed app again without removing its data or settings.
  • Manage widget and theme stores the same way.
  • Opens an app's own in-store settings form when it registers one.
  • Confirms the rare install that needs a real backend before writing anything to disk.
  • Shows a premium badge on apps that have a licensed build available.
  • Shows app and category names in the language of the desktop when the app carries translations.
  • Shows an installed application's own picture icon when it declares one, with its emoji as a fallback.
  • Installing, removing and updating apps, widgets, themes and Store sources requires administrator confirmation with your Linux password for sudo accounts.
