Sort of, but you have to either mess with self-signing and reinstalling weekly, or trusting a 3rd party with mobile device management. Not great options.
F-droid is (of course) not available in the Play Store, but it’s trivial to download and install it from their website after allowing your browser permission to initiate app installs.
It boggles my mind that Microsoft got shit on by the US government for packaging Internet Explorer with their OS, but Google hasn’t been reprimanded in any meaningful way for being SO much more anti-competitive with their Play Store by not even allowing you to download other stores through it.
Do 3rd-party stores work on iOS?
F-Droid works quite well on my Google Pixel
In iOS 15 we should see side loading of apps from 3rd party stores. I think this was the result of an EU ruling? Hopefully someone else can confirm.
