ShizuStore is an app store dedicated to apps that use Shizuku, pulling APKs directly from their official sources like GitHub, GitLab, F-Droid, and Codeberg. It saves you from hunting down individual repos, since it lists apps in one place and can keep them updated automatically.
Developer: timschneeb · License: GPL-3.0 (open source) · Price: Free
Before you start: install and set up Shizuku (via ADB or root) so ShizuStore can use it for silent app installs. Shizuku itself can be found at shizuku.rikka.app.

Why isn’t ShizuStore on Google Play?
ShizuStore is published by its developer on GitHub and is also available on F-Droid, rather than on Google Play.
Is ShizuStore safe?
ShizuStore is open source under GPL-3.0-or-later and is based on Aurora Droid by Aurora OSS. It downloads APKs directly from each app's official upstream source rather than rehosting them itself, and it requires Shizuku to be set up for silent installs to work. ShizuStore 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
