Get picks like this daily. Today's launch numbers, the top launches, AI and tech news, and a daily opportunity pick, straight to your inbox.
Orion Store is a free Android app store with 1,300+ apps: open-source apps the Play Store buries, plus community-patched builds with the annoyances removed. The whole catalog lives in a public GitHub repo, anyone can submit an app, and every submission gets reviewed. The app is only 7 MB and replaces a whole folder of tools: an app manager, malware scanner, no-root debloater, advanced installer and update tracker in one. 1.1M+ downloads, zero ad spend.
