I had to add Google play link. It wanted to add this android link so I let it.

Its look okay, works for you?
It did a week ago but not now and it isn’t updating the app!
I finally got it to find a searched for app if the app is linked on a page and u set up like above so that when u long press u get option to open in external app.
I was trying to install an app called remember me and they have a site. On link there to Google app long press. Here is the site is u want to see if it works for u:
U should get this from Aurora store:
I prefere to use the workaround (open playstore link via firefox based browser) instead of installing any app, as long as aurora will not fix the issue
There’s a new vanilla aurora store app available in f-droid (but not the iode version of aurora store) who may fix it. But i get, instead of the blank screen, a screen which says “oops, this accaount is rate limeted” instead of getting search results.
So, with this new version it’s different, but not better 
A workaround for the Aurora Store search problems: Download this file from auroraoss.com](https://files.auroraoss.com/AuroraStore/Nightly/AuroraStore-nightly-signed-12-05-2023.apk) and install it alongside your existing installation. This version will allow you to search for and install apps from the Play store, while your existing installation will handle updates without much user input.
Hopefully never 
There is no point making yet another app store app. Use F-Droid for FOSS apps, and Aurora Store for apps from the Play store.
Yes there is currently a problem with the version of Aurora Store in IodéOS, but there is a workaround - see my previous post. Creating a new app to fix bugs just creates more bugs!

What’s your problem? Keep calm…
Aurora isn’t working on other ROMs, too
It’s not a iodeOS problem

You could create a dummy google account that you are using until aurora will fix this issue. Thats what im doing and everything works

For me too, search is now working in Aurora Store.
Fixed by the auroraoss developers. And no need for Iode developers to waste scarce time and resources to develop yet another app store app

building and maintaining your own software store is the worst idea ever.

I have to clearify one thing: Murenas App Lounge isn’t a real independent store.
It’s a compination off Aurora Store (their API) and F-Droid.
So they don’t have a real input what apps are hosted or anything else.
I really like the idea off combinig those two app stores. Sadly you cannot add any f-droid repo to App Lounge.
I don’t know why the search function of App Lounge still works but nevertheless it’s not an original appstore with apps maintained by murena. They even stated on their site: Thanks to the Aurora OSS project behind the well known Aurora Store. App Lounge is using their GPlay API library.
One idea would be to incloude App Lounge as an alternative to aurora store in iodé but actually I prefer it the way it is.
never ever please. Do not use any murena services in iodé

No, I don’t won’t that either! 
But do your really think that Iodé developers, who have no experience of working with Google play store APIs, would do a better job of creating a new app store than the people working on Aurora Store, who have been working with them for several years? /e/ developers have tried, and their attempts (the original Apps and the new App Lounge, never got close to performing as well as Aurora Store.
I don’t think that Aurora Store is mediocre: I think it does a fantastic job given how hard Google work on making life difficult.
And I flagged your earlier message because I don’t think comments based on race or nationality are appropriate or acceptable in this community forum. Freedom of speech / liberté d’expression are not absolutes

No, sorry, it’s not necessary. And it’s not possible to realize for that small team off developer.
And please keep on English in international topics

Here’s the latest on the problem with Aurora, from the AuroraOSS gitlab issues list
In particular, this comment:
Hey all,
Bit unfortunate but Aurora Accounts are aggressively block by Google,
which makes sense as we are growing in numbers. Yayy!!However we have to take down Dispenser (Anonymous Login Provider) in
order safeguard our account.We’re going to take a step back & figure out smarter way to do
things.Will bounce back soon!
Thanks

There are some news about the blocked Aurora Store Google Accounts:
Hey all!
Just wanted clear the air, Aurora Accounts are not permanently blocked by Google, it is more of a temporary soft ban.
Since we are growing in numbers & the workload on each account has increased, resulting in token rate-limiting.
Persistent limiting caused accounts to be temporarily blocked.
All accounts are now working perfectly fine (2 days cooldown), we are adding more accounts to the account pool to better distribute the load.
Previous Pool Size : 20
Current Pool Size : 50
Target : 100
Regards
You are of course free to think whatever racist nonsense you like, about the English or anyone else, But it is not appropriate in m opinion to post that nonsense in this community forum. That is why I flagged your post, which definitely did ‘comporte une insulte ou manque de respect’. And why I will not discuss it further here
