# Installing Apps in OwnCloud
# Installing Apps in ownCloud
ownCloud functionality can be enhanced by installing apps that run in the server instance and provide additional features such as a music player and server, single file encryption, an rss aggregator and many more. A repository of apps can be found at apps.owncloud.com, where apps are listed, ranked, discussed and offered for download. A small subsection of these apps can be downloaded and installed directly from the Apps menue inside ownCloud. The majority of these apps however needs to be installed manually by downloading the zipped app from the app repository, uploading and unpacking it inside the ownCloud server instance. Provided App and ownCloud version are compatible, a refresh of the app section will then show this app in the list of installable apps in a column at the left of the ownCloud webinterface.

Manually added apps are parsed by a code checker, apps found to request qestionable permissions are blocked from being installed. At the moment, there is no user facing message about this - the app just does not appear in the list of available apps.
