About Us

OriginAPK is an independent catalog of Android apps and games. Our goal is simple: when you download an APK here, you get exactly the file the developer or an official open-source repository published, nothing added and nothing removed.

Where our files come from

Every download on OriginAPK comes from an official, public source:

• F-Droid, the long-running repository of free and open-source Android apps, which builds apps from their published source code.
• IzzyOnDroid, a well-known F-Droid-compatible repository that distributes the developers’ own signed APKs.
• GitHub Releases of the developer, when a newer official build is available there before it reaches F-Droid.

We do not modify, repackage or re-sign any file. We do not publish modded, cracked or paid apps.

How we check files

• Each download shows its SHA-256 checksum, so you can confirm the file you received is identical to the original.
• Versions, sizes and download links are refreshed automatically every day from the sources above. When an app gets an update, its page changes the same day.
• Apps that add advertising or tracking libraries in a new version are flagged for review before the update is published.

Our writing

The descriptions, feature lists and guides on OriginAPK are written by our team. We explain what an app does, who it is for and how to get started, so you can decide whether it is right for you before you install it.
