AN1 Store is the Android client for an1.com, a third-party app store that lists free games and apps alongside modified builds, with one-tap downloads and in-app updates.
What AN1 Store is
AN1 Store is the official Android app for the an1.com website, a third-party app store run by AN1.com. Instead of browsing the catalog in a mobile browser, the app gives you a native storefront for finding games and apps, downloading their installer files, and keeping them current. It sits in the same category as other independent stores rather than replacing Google Play; many users keep both on the same device.
The draw for most people is the catalog. AN1 Store lists standard free apps next to modified builds of popular games, which is content you will not find on the official store. The app is aimed at users who want a single place to discover those releases, track new uploads, and reinstall updates without hunting down each file by hand.
The app itself is free, with no account or registration required to browse or download. AN1.com states that files in its catalog are screened before they go live, though as with any third-party store the safest habit is to scan anything you sideload and stick to titles you recognize.

What the app offers
AN1 Store keeps the feature set narrow and focused on browsing and installing. The headline pieces are the curated catalog, single-tap installs, and update handling that preserves your existing data.
- Curated app and game catalog.
A browsable library of free Android apps and games, including modified builds of popular titles that are not listed on the official store.
- One-tap download and install.
Pick a title and the app fetches the installer file and walks you straight into the Android package installer, no manual file hunting.
- Daily catalog updates.
The store refreshes its listings regularly, so new uploads and version bumps surface in the app shortly after they go live on an1.com.
- Update over an existing install.
Installing a newer build of an app you already have can preserve local data and game progress, so an update does not always mean starting over.
- Screened file catalog.
AN1.com states files are checked before publishing. Treat this as one layer of safety, not a substitute for your own device scanning habits.
- No account needed.
Browsing and downloading work without sign-up, with no login wall between you and the catalog.
