Hey everyone, I recently learned about Aurora Store, a platform that allows you download Play Store apps even if you don’t have Google services, like on Graphene OS. I’m curious if there’s any benefit to using it on my non-rooted device. Any thoughts?
Aurora is great when it works but it’s having a lot of issues recently.
Just in case the issues you’re referring to are the ‘This account is rate limited’ problem when trying to search for apps while using an anonymous account, I’ve found a workaround:
Make sure Aurora Store has permission to open supported links (Open by default) in the app’s settings, and add the available Play Store links. (If you have the Play Store on your phone you’ll likely need to first remove them from there)
Search for the app you want in your browser and copy the link.
Paste the link in a messaging/notes app.
Click the pasted link and it should open in Aurora Store, allowing you to install it.
