If you use a Firestick Android box , surely it will have crossed your mind to install the Google Play Store as well . However, you soon learned that devices based on Fire OS do not have the services of the search giant and therefore it is impossible to install the Google Play store on them. However we also know that on Android there is never a shortage of alternatives and in addition to Aptoide TV , on Firestick (and on all other Android devices) we can install another fantastic market, namely Aurora Store .
Aurora Store is a fork of Yalp Store that offers pretty much all the same features, but from a much sleeker and more functional interface. While it’s a fork, it’s basically the same app and lets you download any Google Play APK but without having a Google account.
Aurora Store has the same information as Google Play. With this app, you can check app descriptions, screenshots, updates, comments from other users, and download the APK directly to your device with just one tap. Not only that, but you’ll also be able to search for older versions of apps on the Aurora Store as long as you have the version code.
In addition to all these features, Aurora Store also makes it easy to manage the apps already installed on your device. From the Aurora Store, you’ll be able to check for new updates for any of your apps, block an app from being updated, and choose whether you’d like to automatically delete APKs once you install an app or keep them on your device.
Overall, Aurora Store is an intriguing app, completing two functions. First, it makes it easy for you to download virtually any APK offered on Google Play, and second, it lets you manage the apps that are already on your device. All from an elegant and intuitive interface.
