There are lots of "app stores" for various devices and operating systems. There is *one* legal Apple App Store for Apple devices, and for iOS, iPad, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision devices, that's the only proper way to install your apps. There are other app stores you can use, but the legality is questionable (as is their content) and often requires stupidly 'jailbreaking' the device, which a pointless waste of time for all bit a tiny niche minority of users.
