Appteka is an alternative store for Android. It also can extracts APKs, are installed on your Android device and cope them into your SD card.

Features:

Fast and easy to use.
Extracts almost all application, including system applications.
No ROOT access required.
Upload Apks to special Appteka.Store.
Provided Search option to search applications.
Support features of Android 7.0
Can backup and install Apks from your SD Card.
Install free apps from Appteka.Store.
Discuss apps and games with other Appteka users in realtime chat!

Important note: Appteka store is rather an „app exchange“. Users can upload apps freely, and content is only moderated to a degree. It's your own responsibility to take proper safety measures.

Anti-Features:

Ads (the application contains advertising):
⇒ The app uses AppMetrica.
NonFreeAdd (the application promotes non-free add-ons):
⇒ This store promotes proprietary apps as well.
NonFreeComp (the application includes non-free components):
⇒ The app includes the Play Install Referrer and GMS libraries.
NonFreeNet (this application promotes/depends a non-Free network service):
⇒ The app reaches out to Google Servers (Play Install Referrer).
Tracking (the application tracks and reports your activity to somewhere – usually either without your consent, or by default (i.e. you’d have to actively disable it)):
⇒ The app uses the Play Install Referrer and AppMetrica.

Download Source Issues ChangeLog

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
