About ObtainX
ObtainX ā Open Source Productivity App
GPL-3.0-onlyObtainX is a modern, supercharged fork of Obtainium. Re-engineered with a stunning Material 3 Expressive UI and power-user utilities that make managing your apps effortless. Get updates straight from the source: GitHub, GitLab, F-Droid, IzzyOnDroid, APKMirror, APKPure, and more. No central repository, no account, no tracking. š
āā ⨠UNIQUE FEATURES (not in Obtainium) āā
⢠Build Verification ā cryptographic checks (F-Droid/Izzy reproducible builds and GitHub Release Attestations) flag manipulated binaries before install. ObtainX's own updates carry GitHub attestations too.
⢠Third-Party Installer Support ā hand off updates to installers like InstallerX or App Manager to review APK metadata the stock installer hides. Essential under Advanced Protection.
⢠Bulk Import from Device ā select apps already on your phone and ObtainX finds their sources automatically ā no URL hunting.
⢠Dynamic Folders ā named folders, manual or rule-based (by name, author, package ID, category, or source); each keeps its own layout.
⢠On-Demand Only mode ā hide rarely-updated apps from the main list and skip them in global scans; check them only when you want.
⢠Configurable swipe gestures ā independent left/right actions per row: Update, Install, Pin, Edit, Delete, and more.
⢠Custom app icons ā set your own icon for any app, from your gallery or the web.
⢠Undo after delete ā swipe- and bulk-delete show a 5-second Undo snackbar.
⢠Verified "also available on" links ā each app shows other stores where it's confirmed present.
⢠RegEx Assist ā a built-in helper walks you through building version and APK filters ā no regex knowledge required.
⢠Know the update size beforehand ā see the exact download size before updating.
⢠Skip Version ā pass on a release without marking the app "updated."
⢠Stop download ā cancel any ongoing download from the app, notification, or queue.
⢠Save assets ā save downloaded APKs to a folder of your choice during the update.
āā š§ ENHANCED FEATURES āā
⢠APKMirror updates ā enabled (disabled upstream), opening the specific release page.
⢠Smarter version status ā six distinct states instead of a binary update / up-to-date.
⢠Add App ā three paths, one screen ā URL, Search, and From Device under one segmented control, results inline.
⢠Editable package ID for track-only sources ā restores correct install detection and updates.
⢠Active filter chips ā a dismissible chip per active filter; tap to clear it.
⢠Category customization ā any color, rename, and bulk assign.
āā šØ UI & UX āā
⢠Adaptive tablet, foldable & landscape layout ā on large screens a navigation rail replaces the bottom bar and your app list sits side-by-side with the detail page, opening apps in place. Adding and bulk-importing go two-pane too, and adapt in landscape ā so big phones and foldables benefit, not just tablets.
⢠Material 3 Expressive across every screen ā cards, fluid animations, expressive controls.
⢠A full theme engine ā system/light/dark/AMOLED themes, Material You or any hex color, 9 palette algorithms, shading, gradients, progressive blur, corner roundness, and UI scale.
⢠Per-app color theming derived from each app's own icon.
⢠Customizable app rows ā app type, source, and category at a glance, as text badges or minimal color strips.
⢠Hero icon transitions, inline collapsible search, inline edit on the detail page, source favicon badges, and auto-hiding action bars.
