# AuroraStore
The AuroraStore works as an FOSS (Free-and-Open-Source-Software)-Client for the GooglePlay Store. With the AuroraStore you can anonymously download every apk from the PlayStore.
The advantage is, that you neither need a Google account nor any other GooglePlay Services. Another very beneficial aspect is that the AuroraStore has included the exodus-portal (which we already recommanded in our README) that provides privacy audits for all apps and shows you all trackers.
Unfortunately there exist many apps that require parts of the GoogleServiceFramework (GSF). Those apps are tagged in the AuroraStore and may not work here we have collected some popular apps. Nevertheless there are also many apps which are tagged but work completely fine.
If you need apps which require GSF you can install MicroG. MicroG is a free software clone of Googles core libraries and applications.

# OsmAnd
OsmAnd is a navigation app, it is based on the OpenStreetMap (OSM) map database. The Data can be stored locally for offline use.
In the F-Droid store you get OsmAnd~, which is a version without GooglePlay services. As a there are no Google dependencies the voice output does not work because TextToSpeech (TTS) is not installed.
Through the [AuroraStore]() you can install the Speech Services (unfortunately) by Google. Then you can activate TTS in OsmAnd~ and use your navigation app.

The [source code](https://github.com/osmandapp/) from OsmAnd can be found on GitHub under the GPLv3 license.

# Signal
Signal is another messenger, a huge benefit is that Signal is Open-Source and the end-to-end decryption keeps you data secure.
Signal is recommended by many privacy advocates like Edward Snowden and is moreover an independent nonprofit.
# Data Flow

# Privacy
All your messages are stored locally on your device, so the messages you send only exist on Signals servers during transit where they are end-to-end encrypted.
As long as your phone is safe, your Signal messages are safe as well.
Because your data are only stored locally you have to perform a backup of your messages if you want to keep them after changing your phone or before installing LineageOS. Therefore you have to create a backup-file.

## How to bypass GooglePlay Store and use your messenger of choice
Without a minimal google installation package (like GApps) it is no more possible to use the GooglePlay Store. This doesn't mean that you can't use its popular apps.\
One of the most important apps for most of the users is the messenger of choice. We proposed the Open-Source based **F-Droid App Store**, but unfortunately there you can only directly download the **Telegram** messenger, although Signal is also FOSS (Free and open-source software) it is not yet available ([more information][signal]) in the F-Droid store.
But there are many workarounds, e.g. if you want to use **Signal** you can just download the apk [here][signalapk] (either install it directly on the smartphone or through your computer). Even if you still want to use WhatsApp you can go to the official WhatsApp [page][whatsapp] and the same will work there. The only disadvantage is that the backup functionality won't work because it's based on GoogleDrive.
Another easy way to install apps like Signal, Threema, DeltaChat and almost **any other app** from GooglePlay Store is to use the **Aurora App Store**. The Aurora Store is available in the F-Droid Store and you can easily download APKs from the PlayStore without a GooglePlay account, but nevertheless supports important security updates. Furthermore, Aurora gives you information about in-app trackers and many more.
Before you ungoogle your smartphone, it might be a good idea to backup your chats from your phone. Therefore you just have to store a backup file on your computer and after the installation you can copy this backup file back to your phone and restore your chats.
