• Qooapp. An unofficial market for manga and anime lovers. You can download thousands of games in these genres, as well as comics (catalogues are regularly updated and replenished).
• AC Market. This alternative market also offers hacked and modified apps to Android users. It was created for mobile devices.
• Mobo Play App Store. In addition to all Google Play applications, there are also programs that are not allowed there (not approved under Google’s terms). You can, for example, find applications for downloading videos from YouTube (you can’t find them in official sources now, everything has been blocked).
• Aptoide Lite. It has the same optional features as the Google Play Store, but the platform is faster because it is lighter. You can also find open applications.

App Reviews

Julia Skvortsova, 31 years old, Samara. Just recently I found out that there are other Android app stores besides Google Play. Download Aptoide. It is in many ways similar to the usual Play, but here you can find really cool and useful applications that are not there.
Anton Mikov, 43 years old, Ulan-Ude. In general, the store is good, downloads faster than a regular market, has a larger selection of programs, but there are a lot of ads in it. Slightly moderate appetites and it will be generally excellent. Aptoide TV is an alternative app store for Android TVs and boxes. It replaces the standard market for downloading programs and games. The main difference between this store and the original one is that there is a much larger selection of applications of various topics. Also, this platform is lighter and faster.
