ObtainX

🛡️ Security & Integrity 🛡️ Build Verification Checks — Runs automated cryptographic checks (F-Droid/Izzy reproducible builds, GitHub Release Attestations) on apps you add to flag tampered binaries before install. For total integrity, ObtainX's own updates are secured with GitHub Release Attestations as well. Learn more in the Build Verification Guide.

🦠 VirusTotal APK scanning — Optionally scan downloaded APKs with VirusTotal before installation. You are in control - flagged or failed scans ask you what to do during installs.

📦 Third-Party Installer Support — Hand off updates to third-party installers like InstallerX or App Manager to review APK metadata (trackers, permissions, target SDK etc.) before installing (data hidden by stock installers). Essential for devices running under Google Advanced Protection.

🔧 Enhanced Features Optimizations made to legacy Obtainium features.

🏪 APKMirror updates — In Obtainium, the update button is completely disabled for APKMirror apps. ObtainX enables it and takes you directly to the specific release page for the new version. (Bulk Import is also supported.)

🧠 Smarter version status — ObtainX handles harmless version label differences more intelligently, so you're only notified when there's genuinely something new. Six distinct states instead of a binary "update / up to date" pair: up to date, update available, device is ahead, same version shown differently, genuinely unclear and Not installed.

🎯 Add App — three paths, one screen — URL, Search, and From Device are all on one screen under a segmented control. Search results load inline alongside store chips — no floating sheets, no separate screens. New searches can be started without needing to go back-n-forth.

🔭 Track-only source improvements — Shows installed version from the device when the package ID is known. The Update button opens the concrete release page, not just the app listing. In Obtainium, if the wrong package ID is fetched (or none at all), the app shows as "not installed" forever and update notifications never work right — with no way to fix it. ObtainX surfaces this clearly and lets you edit the package ID directly from the app page, instantly restoring correct install detection and update tracking.

🔖 Active filter chips — Extends Obtainium's filter with dismissible chips pinned below the toolbar showing every active non-text filter (category, pinned, installed state, etc.). Tap any chip to clear just that filter. The row disappears entirely when nothing is active.

🏷️ Category customization — More control over your categories: instead of cycling between a few random colors, pick any color of your choice. Category colors are WYSIWYG. Category's name switches between black and white text automatically for readability. You can also rename an existing category, and all assigned apps automatically receive it. Bulk edit lets you assign new categories to your selected apps, without wiping all existing ones.

🚀 Advanced Update Controls 🧩 Advanced filter / RegEx Assist — A built-in helper walks you through building regex filters on any field that supports them. No regex knowledge required. Full details in the Additional options guide. ⚖️ Know the update size beforehand — See the exact download size for every update - across supported stores - before you even hit the update button. ⏭️ Skip Version — Skip a specific release you don't want without marking the app as "updated." The next release will still show up normally. 🛑 Stop download — You can stop any ongoing download from the app, the notification, or the update queue. 💾 Save assets — Option to automatically save update assets (e.g. APKs) to your chosen folder, during update process itself.
