SkieWhat is the Skie app catalog?
The Skie app catalog is the global collection of apps that Skie has reviewed and made available to organisations. Your organisation chooses from it, adds apps to its own app store, and then builds app lists from that. Every app in it is a Google Play app, and the Skie team curates what appears.
The catalog sits above your organisation. Skie maintains it, and each entry carries a category and an age band so admins can see at a glance what an app is for and who it suits. Organisations browse it and bring the apps they want into their own store.
Because the catalog is shared, an app in it can be used by many organisations at once. That is why deleting a catalog app that others use is blocked unless the deletion is forced, and why Skie can pull an app out of the catalog if an update turns it bad.
If an app you need is not in the catalog, you can add your own by pasting its Google Play link. Your own apps wait for Skie approval before they become available, unless the owner has turned approval off for a trusted organisation. The status shows as waiting while the review is pending.
The chain is simple to remember: catalog, then organisation app store, then app list, then group. The catalog says what exists, the store says what your organisation has chosen to make available, the list says what a group may use, and the group is where devices live. A practical tip is to check the catalog first for common learning, office and utility apps before adding anything of your own.
