App browsing
This will probably be low priority for you but eventually if you could add the ability to browse apps as well, along with permissions etc., that would be fantastic

For the first implementation a simple screen presenting search results (and a link to the playstore detail page) would be great. This would massively simplify installation of new apks.
I think what was meant in this issue was that a screen to get more information on apps installed on the device would be useful (incidentally, this is one of the next things I will be working on once my other FOSS project on GitHub has stabilized). As for the possibility to look for new apps and install them, I'm not sure it's in the scope of the application.
I just looked into the code, i thought you also provide an automatic download for google play apps. I tested it only using f-droid before and there it is possible to download updates, but the sources.json of this project made it pretty clear. By the way: thank you for this great app!
I hope to provide automatic downloads from the Play Store at some point too, but that's long term stuff! No idea when I'll have time to work on this, and even then it won't be quick to look into the Play Store protocol... So no promises there :)
As downloading APKs from the Google play store requires a Play Store account (see DJaeger's comments in issue 65), IMHO this is outside the current scope of ApkTrack (but already noted as a long term goal).
Also there is APKUpdater (com.apkupdater, aka "Apk updater Apk installer") by rumboalla (releases and source code repository) for this purpose, supplementing ApkTrack's feature set well in this and a few other aspects (though by no means constituting an adequate substitute for ApkTrack).
