Nirvana OpenStore
A lightweight, transparent open-source application discovery client designed to help everyday Android users find audited, privacy-respecting alternatives to commercial Big Tech apps.
Nirvana OpenStore is in active development. It acts as an open index and client connecting directly to trusted upstream ecosystems such as F-Droid and verified GitHub releases. Nirvana does not claim to author or host every cataloged application. All listed third-party apps remain property of their respective open-source developers.
Target ~30MB Client
Designed to be compact, swift, and bloat-free, running smoothly without requiring background Google Play Services.
Exclusively Open Source
Every indexed application must have verifiable public source code under OSI-approved free and open-source licenses.
Direct Package Verification
Cryptographic APK signature checks verify that downloaded packages have not been tampered with in transit.
