Download Client
To download and use apps from the Pi Store you will require the Pi Store application.
If you're using the official operating system image, the Pi Store will already be installed on your Raspberry Pi, but if you need to reinstall it you can download it from the official repository.
Open a terminal window and type:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pistore
Why do you need the Pi Store application?
- Silent installs: Enable this feature and you don't have to worry about clicking through an installer! Download the app and next thing you know you'll have a notification saying it's ready to go.
- Recommended downloads: Using this feature will allow the Download Client to push you free apps, games and demos based on your personal preferences. Skip the browsing and wake up to a new set of apps and games to try!
