Recommend your desired app directly

To be a “high-quality App Store”, every application in Deepin Store is checked and reviewed manually, insisting that only the hottest, latest or best applications are put in the store.
However, since users are in all walks of life, the application demand varies greatly. Sometimes you may not find the application you want in Deepin Store, then you can click on “Recommend App” in the main menu to recommend high-quality apps to us.

 

Update old apps according to your requirements

Since the application in Deepin Store is sourced from deepin repository and packaged by us, usually users cannot get the latest version of each application. So "Ask for update“ is added to urge updates. If you find that an app has a newer version, please let us know by this feature, we will arrange the update as soon as possible according to the urging frequency.

 

Donate apps to improve open source ecosystem

In the open source community, anyone can obtain, copy and distribute the source code for free all the time. Therefore, under the condition of respecting the labor results of developers and community rules, Deepin Store collects many excellent applications in it.
To appreciate for the positive contributions of community developers, in Deepin Store, whether it is open source or free closed source software, the donation channel is open by default, with the functions of income claiming, withdrawing, distributing, and so on.
