Replacement apps
Goal: wherever an Amazon app can be swapped for a faster open-source one, offer the swap. Prime Video, Alexa and the pieces they need for sign-in and DRM stay.
| Role | Choice | Why | Licence |
|---|---|---|---|
| App store | Droid-ify (F-Droid repositories) | Has a TV-friendly entry, updates apps in the background | GPL-3.0-or-later |
| Browser | TV Bro | Works with a remote and uses the system web view for low memory | Custom, redistributed unmodified |
| Optional store | Obtainium | Installs apps straight from GitHub releases | GPL-3.0 |
| Not bundled | Aurora Store | Uses anonymous Play accounts, which risks breakage and terms-of-service trouble; you can still install it from Droid-ify | GPL-3.0 |
Bundled apps are downloaded from upstream, checked against a pinned hash, and never re-signed, so their own updaters keep working.
