# Obtainium Get Android App Updates Directly From the Source. Obtainium allows you to install and update Open-Source Apps directly from their GitHub or GitLab releases. ***Work In Progress - Currently Unusable*** ## Limitations - App installs are assumed to have succeeded; failures and cancelled installs cannot be detected. - Apps that are already installed are not indicated as such, since GitHub and GitLab do not provide App IDs (like `org.example.app`) to allow for comparisons.
