Why isn’t OpenSCQ30 on Google Play?
OpenSCQ30 is published by its developer on GitHub, not on Google Play. It's also distributed through Flathub and IzzyOnDroid (F-Droid repo), and is not listed on the main F-Droid repository.
Is OpenSCQ30 safe?
OpenSCQ30 is open source under the GPL-3.0 license, and the README states that release files are signed with the developer's GPG key. As with any APK from outside Google Play, you'll need to allow installs from unknown sources, and you should verify the file comes from the official GitHub Releases page. OpenSCQ30 comes straight from its developer rather than through Google Play, so it hasn’t gone through Google’s app review. As with any app, check the permissions it asks for and install it if you’re comfortable with them.
How to install
- Tap the download button above: the APK file downloads straight to your phone.
