Orion Store 2.6.0 🚀

Orion is now an APK installer too, guards your phone against Android's developer verification, and fixes Beta and Nightly updates. Plus GitHub stars, popularity charts, batch uninstall and cleaner share links.

Updating from 2.x.x? Install 2.6.0 over your current Orion Store. Your profile, XP, badges and settings come along.

📦 Install Any APK With Orion

• Install With Orion: Open an APK in your file manager, browser or a share sheet and pick Install with Orion. A sheet slides up over the app you were in.
• Everything Before You Tap: The sheet shows the app's icon, name, package, version and what is already installed, and warns you before a signer clash.
• No 24-Hour Wait: It installs through root, Shizuku, Dhizuku or built-in wireless debugging when you set one up, so unverified apps go in right away.
• VirusTotal Before You Install: Scan the exact APK with your own VirusTotal key right from the install sheet.
• From Settings Too: Install an APK file in Settings picks any APK on your phone.

🛡️ Sideloading Protection

• Developer Verification Guard: Orion now spots when Android has switched on its developer verification component, the one that can slow down or block sideloaded apps.
• One Tap To Turn It Off: A clean popup offers Secure me. One tap uses your set up privileged method to switch verification off and keep installs instant.
• Reversible And Quiet: It only appears when the component is actually active, shows once, and uses the official, reversible route. Nothing changes until you tap.
• Works Across Phones: Falls back from root to Shizuku to built-in wireless ADB, so the guard works whether you run One UI, HyperOS or stock.

🔄 Updates That Follow Your Channel

• Betas Stay Betas: Installing a Beta, Alpha or Nightly no longer shows the Stable build as an update right after. Updates now follow the channel you installed.
• Right Build In The Background: Auto-update downloads the next build of your channel instead of the Stable APK.

⭐ Stars And Charts

• GitHub Stars: Apps hosted on GitHub show their star count under the developer name.
• Most Popular And Hidden Gems: Two new charts after the bundles rank apps by stars, from the most loved to the ones worth discovering.
• Free For Guests: Stars come with the catalog, so they never use your GitHub requests.

🧹 My Apps

• Batch Uninstall: Long-press an installed app to start picking, tap more or All, then Uninstall them together.

📝 App Pages

• What's New Appears Instantly: The row shows right away and the notes load in the background.
• Same Spot For Updates: What's new now sits below About on every app page.
• Readable Colors: Patches and What's new use proper Material You color pairs, so text stays readable on every palette.

🔗 Cleaner Share Links

• Short And Clean: Shared links now look like rookieenough.github.io/Orion-Data/app/?id=app instead of a long redirect with an icon address. Old links keep working.

📺 TV And Big Screens

• TV Downloads Fixed: Downloads that sat at 0% on some TVs now switch to a plain connection by themselves when a server stalls.
• Tablets And Foldables: Settings, About, Know Orion and Orion AI no longer stretch edge to edge, and the Featured cards keep their shape with the next ones peeking in.

✨ Polish

• Full Screen Toggle: Turn the hidden status bar on or off in Settings, Look & feel.
