Mitch

The unofficial mobile app for itch.io

Indie gaming is coming to mobile! With this app, you can easily install Android games from itch.io and keep them updated. This provides an alternative to the Google Play store for indie game developers and enthusiasts.

• Access high-quality indie games that are not ad-ridden cash grabs!
• Support for APK downloads as well as HTML5 games
• itch.io account is not required
• Beautiful Material UI adapts to custom color schemes set by game developers
• App is free and open-source (hosted on GitLab)
• Works on phones without Google Services
• Can block trackers and analytics
• Full functionality of itch.io's mobile website

The app is still in development, some features are planned but not yet implemented.

"Why did you make this?"

Mitch is actually a rather ambitious project. I want itch.io to be able to compete with Google Play, the same way it competes with Steam on the desktop.

Note that Mitch will probably never be available on Google Play, because their developer agreement does not allow "competitiors" on their store (as of January 3, 2020, see paragraph 4.5)

Requires Android 5.0 (Lollipop) or newer.
