About hb-appstore
Homebrew App Store is a free and open-source repository of homebrew apps for the Wii U and Switch consoles. This listing is maintained by the ForTheUsers team, with the goal of making accessible and preserving the efforts of independent developers and hobbyists to end users.
If you would like to list your own open-source app here, or request an existing one to add to this index, please see the Submit page. For already listed apps, an API is available.
If you are an app author and don't want us to distribute your project, please fill out this removal form. This also applies if you are a copyright holder and are concerned that your work is being infringed upon (DMCA Request).
How It Works
The content in our repositories is available both as a website and as a native homebrew app for the Wii U and Switch consoles. These console apps try to provide a similar experience to using a web browser, and can be downloaded here.
The individual hosted packages are updated regularly with new apps and updates. These are maintained by ForTheUsers staff and volunteers from the community. If you would like to help or report and outdated package, please contact us on Discord.
The Switch and Wii U platform icons were designed by Fred Corbin.
App Authors
Of course, this project wouldn't exist without the developers of the apps themselves. Thank you to all of the developers who have contributed to the homebrew community!
