Notable changes in version 28:

remove default release channel setting added in version 27 since it doesn't provide the intended convenience and needs a new design

App Store is the client for the GrapheneOS app repository. It's included in GrapheneOS but can also be used on other Android 12+ operating systems. Our app repository currently provides our standalone apps, out-of-band updates to certain GrapheneOS components and a mirror of the core Google Play apps and Android Auto to make it easy for GrapheneOS users to install sandboxed Google Play with versions of the Google Play apps we've tested with our sandboxed Google Play compatibility layer.

GrapheneOS users must obtain GrapheneOS app updates through our App Store since verified boot metadata is required for out-of-band system app updates on GrapheneOS as part of extending verified boot to them.

Notable changes in version 23:

drop removed packages from the user interface after repository update rather than on next app restart
add a way to mark a dependency being missing as ignored

verify shared library declaration during package installation to prevent a compromise of the repository signing key and server from being able to install new packages by adding them as dependencies of other apps

dismiss keyboard when searching

Notable changes in version 19:

ignore package dependencies when updating disabled packages
add 1 year expiration to TLS key pinning since Apps is solely responsible for updating itself when used outside GrapheneOS and we don't want extremely out-of-date versions to be stranded without an update path (on GrapheneOS, System Updater prevents that happening)
drop redundant TLS key pins for intermediates
switch to modern Gradle plugin infrastructure
raise TLS key pinning expiry date
update Android Gradle plugin to 8.0.1
update Gradle to 8.1.1
update Kotlin to 1.8.21
update AndroidX Activity KTX library to 1.7.1
