Huh?  What does that mean?

I'm usually interested in anything related to BSD documentation,
but it seems pretty unclear to me what you are talking about here.
What is the meaning of the term "app store"?

The "app store" for OpenBSD is documented in the manual pages pkg_add(1)
and packages(7), but you do not need any of that for reading OpenBSD
documentation nor for reading third-party documentation on OpenBSD.

The "app" you use on OpenBSD for reading documentation is standardized
by POSIX, called man(1), and on OpenBSD, it provides many extensions to
the standard.  Alternatively, at points in time when you do not have
access to any OpenBSD system, you can also read OpenBSD documentation
here, without needing any "app" whatsoever, in plain HTML5+CSS format:

  https://man.openbsd.org/

Now *if* you are talking about mobile devices, effort has been spent
on giving https://man.openbsd.org/ an adaptive design.  In case there
are still any respects in which it isn't mobile-friendly, reports
are quite welcome.  Again, no "app store" needed for all i know...

In case you are talking about Android mobile devices - which,
admittedly, is a wild guess on my part - the Termux system already
includes the OpenBSD version of man(1) by default, and it has been
doing so for more than a decade now.  In that sense, Android already
has an OpenBSD documentation app.  For more information, see:

  https://termux.dev/

In case you are talking about Apple devices running macOS, newer
versions of that system now also use the OpenBSD implementation as
the formatting engine in their man(1) program - though last time i
heard something about that, it didn't appear to be quite stable yet
but hastily stitched together and rather buggy, as usual with Unix
software on macOS in general.

I feel very confused by your request, and i fear i don't really
understand what you are asking for.

Yours,
  Ingo
