About us

At Rootpk, we're reimagining what an app store can be. For far too long, the app marketplace has been dominated by two tech giants—Apple and Google. Since the iPhone's launch in 2008, Apple has kept its ecosystem tightly closed, allowing apps to be installed only from its official store and charging a hefty 30% fee on sales. These restrictions have slowed down innovation, limited choices, and left creators feeling constrained.

We believe that users should have the freedom to choose where they get their apps, and that app makers deserve a fair shot at sharing their ideas. Our mission is to create a more open, inclusive app ecosystem where creativity, variety, and choice thrive.

Rootpk is proudly made and hosted within the European Union (EU) by EU-based companies. We prioritize your security and privacy, and being EU-based allows us to operate under some of the world's strictest data protection and privacy regulations, like GDPR.

Our team is made up of experienced software engineers and industry professionals committed to expanding app access for everyone. We're proud supporters of initiatives like the EU Digital Markets Act and the antitrust cases against Apple and Google. Companies like Spotify, Epic Games, and Match Group have been vocal in challenging the status quo, and we stand behind them in the call for fairer practices.

With Rootpk, you'll find a diverse selection of apps from all over the world, including those that may not fit the rigid guidelines of other app stores. We're here for app makers and users who want options, and for those whose creativity deserves a place to shine. Rootpk is compatible with Android, iPhone, and iPad devices, giving you the freedom to explore and install apps from a trusted alternative source.

We're excited to be part of a growing movement toward more open and innovative app stores, and we're committed to supporting app makers and users alike in their pursuit of creativity, choice, and freedom.
