Aptoide might have been an opensource project in the past (probably the principal source of F-Droid). However, currently it does not seem to be opensource, as stated in its terms of service:
"9.2 You may not (and you may not permit anyone else to) copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, decompile or otherwise attempt to extract the source code of the Software or any part thereof, unless this is expressly permitted or required by law, or unless you have been specifically told that you may do so by Aptoide, in writing". {{

The app throwing randomly video advertisements at the user is one sign. Never before have I seen an open-source application with such advertising. Mahaer Mahmud ( talk) 22:19, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
The description for Aptoide reads like an advertisement. The site is a black market for Android applications which offers paid application as free downloads. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.13.140.40 ( talk) 15:38, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
In contrast to stores such as Google Play, Amazon or the like, no place of business/country/phone number is available for Aptoide. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.13.140.40 ( talk) 15:50, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Aptoide is an active participant in piracy of apps. There are many examples of legitimate apps that have been hacked & then distributed via Aptoides stores. I personally have had several of my apps hacked numerous times & then distributed via Aptoide. Whenever I have asked Aptoide to remove them, they have either flat out refused, or claimed that they have no control over piracy but are trying to eliminate it - yet they still fail to remove apps that have been identified as pirated by their legitimate owners.
