Alternative to Google Play

App Stores

App stores distribute mobile applications and handle discovery, updates, and in-app payments. Since Google Play restricts payments and some content for Iranian users, local Android app stores are the primary way Iranian developers monetize apps and users install them.

Cafe Bazaar

Cafe Bazaar is Iran's largest Android app store, with hundreds of thousands of Persian apps and games, in-app payments in Rial, and its own developer console and analytics.

Ad Networks

Ad networks let businesses run display, native, and in-app advertising across a network of publisher websites and apps, with targeting and performance reporting. Since Google Ads cannot bill Iranian advertisers or serve many Iranian sites, local networks handle digital advertising inside the country.

Books & E-Books

Book platforms sell print books online or offer e-books and audiobooks for reading in an app with a personal library. They are the local equivalents of Amazon's bookstore, Kindle, and Google Play Books, with deep Persian catalogs.
