RuStore is Russia’s official, state-sponsored app store, launched on May 25, 2022 by VK Corporation in cooperation with Russia’s Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation.^[1]

Alphabet Inc. limited their operations in Russia after the invasion of Ukraine and eventually ceased operating in Russia.^[2][3] RuStore was created to replace Google Play.

The beta version of the service launched on May 25, 2022 for Android only. For some developers, a personal account was opened, which allows you to independently download applications. Security scanning software by Kaspersky Lab and VK were integrated into the service. At launch, about 150 applications were available.^[4][5]

On November 18, 2023, at the RuStore Mobile Conf Conference,^[6][7] it was announced that from 2024, the Russian RuStore app store will be installed on all smartphones running the domestic Aurora operating system.

On July 7, 2025, Putin signed a law on the mandatory installation of RuStore for foreign manufacturers of smartphones sold in Russia.^[8]

It must be preinstalled on iOS, Hyper OS, Android, and Harmony OS devices by law for Russian users.^[9][10]

In October 2022 the monthly active users of RuStore surpassed 7 million people. This is based on the results of the October 2022 Cross Web Mediascope study, implemented on the Android-only approach. Twenty-five of the most popular Russian applications and about 3,000 other services from more than 1,800 developers are already available in the app store.^[11]
