Hello everyone, I recently developed a website called F-Droid Insights, which is a simple website that let you explore F-Droid apps enriched by data coming from external websites such as Github.

F-Droid is amazing and serves as my main source to find Android apps. Unfortunately it can be difficult to discover new apps there, as F-Droid lacks a method to estimate the popularity of a project. F-Droid Insights incorporates repository information (number of stars, number of forks) coming from Github, Gitlab and Codeberg.

A few notes:

  • To create filters (in order to see all apps from the "Games" category or to filter out apps hosted on github) you can use the Custom Search Builder located at the bottom of the page.
  • The first page load can be quite slow on mobile devices, just wait for the page to be completely loaded and it should be fine.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Cool project! Would be awesome if it had a mobile layout. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the suggestion, I just added some responsive support! It's not perfect (it might still be a bit small) but it should be more usable on mobile.

Nice, thanks for being open to suggestions. It's hard to get columnar data to be responsive on mobile. Not sure if there are any card layout type css libraries that are compatible with tables.

Again, thanks for the cool project!
