What we couldn't confirm3
- Whether Aurora Store works with any Apple App Store or iOS app catalog, since the material only covers Google Play on Android.
- Whether a Google Play account is required beyond the optional anonymous login, since the README mentions both personal and anonymous accounts.
- Whether the app functions fully without Google Play Services, beyond the Plexus compatibility feature mentioned in the README.
