ok could we please start one major thread on different android app marketplaces? I personally think yandex is a joke. There's limited number of apps, no feedback&downloads for many of them and often times info is on russian.
Those being the reasons I started looking for alternatives and found:
-Aptoide -1mobile market
Have to try them more today to give precise feedback.
How about others? Which app stores you prefer and why?

Ok could we please start one major thread on different android app marketplaces? It would certainly help a lot of users (especially those not coming from the Android world) to find useful applications not yet available natively. Jolla can run Android applications; lets make it easy to use this potential.
You can install the clients for any of the following market places directly from the Jolla store application:
Popular market from Russia with over 100.000 applications.
Good to know:
Put useful information about the market here; mention compatibility with Alien Dalvik on Jolla if there's anything special.
A federated collection of stores with well over 200.000 applications.
Good to know:
Think of Aptoide as a collection of stores rather than one single store. This concept takes some getting used to and isn't hassle free. You might not find an app you search for in the Jolla-Store initially set up when the Aptoide client is freshly installed, but aptoide will give you a hint that they exist in other stores you can add. (Store names follow the pattern of username.store.aptoide.com.)
Aptoide offers a nice selection of popular applications because of the user-created stores. There's no way, though, to filter Jolla compatible apps. The so-called "Jolla-Store" that comes with a fresh install seems to be just a copy of the main store that's not checked for device compatibility in any way. (See this thread.)
Popular Chinese market with over 300.000 applications.
Good to know:
Put useful information about the market here; mention compatibility with Alien Dalvik on Jolla if there's anything special.
This is the list that will make this wiki page interesting. Hopefully.
Try the following:
How to install:
I personally think yandex is rather useless. There's limited number of interesting/essential apps, no feedback&downloads don't know if there's a canonical URL for many of them all countries and often times info is languages. I found, for example,
Probably it's best you search your local Amazon homepage 'by department'. Once you found the link, you just download the application.
Good to know:
Amazon doesn't use Google's non-free API ("Google Play Services") in its own Android devices. Applications from the Amazon market should have a higher chance to be compatible with the Jolla phone, which also doesn't support these APIs. Your existing Amazon account can be used in the market.
How to install:
Provide a link to the store client or explain how to obtain it.
