APKUpdater 
APKUpdater is an open source tool that simplifies the process of finding updates for your installed apps.
It provides similar functionality to an app store, but instead of depending on a single source, it aggregates the results from APKMirror, Aptoide, F-Droid, IzzyOnDroid, APKPure, GitLab and GitHub.
The 3.x branch is a full rewrite using modern technologies like Jetpack Compose, Flow and WorkManager.

- Search Sources: Find new apps to install from APKMirror, Aptoide, F-Droid, IzzyOnDroid, APKPure, GitLab, GitHub and Google Play.
- Schedule background update checks and receive a notification when updates are found.
- Supports Android 5 (21) to Android 14 (34).
- Supports Android TV.
- Material Design 3 with Dark, Light and System theme support.
- Supports Material You on Android 12+.
- Direct install of updates for sources that support it.
- Supports installs without user interaction on Android 12+.
