I get the message "Server is busy, please try again later" thing on Aurora Store when trying to update my apps or install new ones.

This keep happening the last 3 or 4 days.

Does Anyone know something? Did Google started to hunt Aurora or block the anonymous accounts?

Should I search for an alternative to get play store apps?

Scrolled down a bit further and came across some threads pointing to this issue:

Same issue for me. My workaround is to remove the anonymous account and let Aurora Store fetch another one. It might take two or three attempts before you get one that works.

These two accounts that were automatically assigned when selecting Anonymous didn't work for me.

aurora.oss.ponies@gmail.com
ossaur01@gmail.com

Removing it and selecting Anonymous again got me an account that worked.

EDIT: well that did not last long.

Yeah feels like playing with RNG. I haven't anything like this for over a year that I use it.

Thanks! Removing the current account and requesting a new anonymous account worked for me.

No issues on my end, just updated everything this morning. Good luck with finding a solution.
