Request Android's package-install permission only when an APK is ready to install. ⚙️ Appearance, Accessibility, and Language Choose light, dark, or system-default theme behaviour. Select dynamic colour or a Buge Store accent palette. Choose standard, medium, or high contrast. Reduce motion for more stable screen transitions and carousel behaviour.

Favourites and download history are persisted in the local application database. APK installation remains subject to Android's standard user confirmation flow. The app requires network access only to refresh the catalogue and download selected APK files.
