AAStore is a utility application developed by croccio. Also known as Android Auto Store, this app allows users to download different applications for Android Auto directly onto their mobile phones. The app is free to use and allows unlimited download.

AAStore works exactly the same way as any app store. It gives you a catalog of apps you can download, and you only need to tap the download and install buttons. However, unlike Google Play, the selection is quite limited as it only offers applications designed for automobiles. Additionally, it cannot install or run all Android apps. 

What is AAStore?

Android Auto is the version of Android tailored for car information systems. With this, applications specially designed for vehicles can be installed, from those that are specifically made for cars to those adaptations that work through linking with mobile phones, such as Spotify. However, you cannot install Android Auto apps onto a mobile device. You will have to use a computer. Lucky for you, there are third-party apps that do.

AAStore is among those third-party apps that allow you to download Android Auto apps to your mobiles and tablets. Not only that, but it works like any other app store. Once launched, you can browse the apps offered from its catalog. You can also download and install them by tapping the install button. Like Google Play, each app included comes with a description for your perusal.

This app comes with a sober design focused on usability. With this, navigation is easy. It also has rooting and nonrooting support and allows unlimited download. However, as mentioned, it only permits the installation of auto applications. Therefore, it cannot install or run all Android apps. Additionally, its features do not work on Android Auto version 6.4 or above, requiring you to downgrade your operating system.

Expanded app catalog and popular titles

AAStore offers access to hundreds of Android Auto apps beyond what the official Google Play Store permits, including popular third-party tools like CarTube (YouTube), AAStream (video streaming), IPcarTV, and local video players. These additions allow users to bring rich media and entertainment options to their car’s display—though safety precautions recommend using such apps only when the vehicle is parked.

Easy mobile installation without a computer

Unlike traditional Android Auto installation methods that may require connecting a phone to a computer or using advanced tools, AAStore lets you download and install Android Auto apps directly from your mobile device. Simply download the APK, enable installation from unknown sources, and start browsing apps—making the whole process fast and convenient for everyday users.

Compatibility notes and limitations

While AAStore works on most Android devices and does not require root access, there are some compatibility quirks, especially with newer Android or Android Auto versions (e.g., Android Auto 6.4+). On some devices or software versions, users may need to reinstall or downgrade certain components to regain full functionality. Additionally, some devices from brands like Oppo or Realme may have specific limitations.

Active community and update notifications

AAStore maintains an active community of users and developers who share updates, support, and tips via channels such as Telegram. The app can also notify users when new third-party Android Auto apps become available or existing ones are updated, helping you stay current with the latest additions to its catalog.

Should you use it?

All in all, AAStore offers a convenient alternative to installing Android Auto apps. With this, you don't have to use a computer to add an app for your vehicle. You can do so directly from your mobile. Even better, the installation process is easy as the app works like any app store. However, the catalog is limited as it can only install and run apps designed for automobiles.
