App Description

From version

1.23.2

:

NOTE: The Basic version of F-Droid Client has a reduced feature set (e.g. no nearby share and no panic feature). It targets Android 13 and can do unattended updates without privileged extension or root.

F-Droid is an installable catalogue of libre software apps for Android. The F-Droid client app makes it easy to browse, install, and keep track of updates on your device.

It connects to any F-Droid compatible repositories. The default repo is hosted at f-droid.org, which contains only bona fide libre software.

Android itself is open in the sense that you are free to install APKs from anywhere you wish, but there are many good reasons for using F-Droid as your libre software app manager:

* Get notified when updates are available

* Optionally download and install updates automatically

* Keep track of older and beta versions

* Filter out apps incompatible with the device

* Find apps via categories and searchable descriptions

* Access associated URLs for donations, source code etc.

* Stay safe by checking repo index signatures and APK hashes

Frequently Asked Questions about F-Droid Basic APK

This variant is built for devices that report `arm64-v8a, armeabi-v7a, x86, x86_64` as their primary ABI. If your device's CPU matches, this is the smallest, fastest version to install.

Yes — the APK's signature has been cryptographically verified against the publisher's signing key. The SHA-256 hash is shown in the File Information panel so you can independently confirm the file matches the original release.

Android 23 (API level 35) or newer. Older devices will refuse the install.

Install a free app like 'CPU-Z' or 'Droid Hardware Info' from the Play Store and look at the ABI / Instruction Set row. Most phones made after 2017 are arm64-v8a; if in doubt, download the universal variant.

All variants are functionally identical — same features, same version. They differ only in which CPU architectures the native code is compiled for, and (sometimes) which screen densities the included graphics target. Pick the one that matches your device for the smallest install size, or pick 'Universal' if you're unsure.
