Searching for apps with Raccoon

Finding apps with Raccoon works the same way as searching on Google Play (in fact, it's the same backend). You can look up apps by:

• Keywords or App name (e.g. "List My Apps")
• Package name (e.g. "de.onyxbits.listmyapps")
• Developer name (e.g. "Onyxbits")

Note: Google Play will filter search results serverside by device compatibility and geographic availability. It is possible that the app you are searching for will be excluded from the results. You can still download such apps (depending on how they were omitted) by:

• Setting up a proxy server
• Providing the Android ID of a supported device
• Bypassing search entirely and downloading the app directly via the commandline (you need to know package id and version code for this).

How to do this is described in the network chapter.
