I’ve using FDroid for some time now, but now it says “it was developed for an older Android version (I’m on 14) and can’t update automatically” I read that FDroid Basic was recommended for newer phones, so I installed and copied my repos (still have both apps) but it doesn’t recognize my installed apps. Am I missing something?
It will recognize your apps once they get one update and then they will begin auto-updating again like they were. But fdroid itself is increasing its Android versions to catch up. I think it’s targeting Android 10 or 11 now when it was targeting like Android 6.
Droidify > Neo Store.
…at least for me.
I have not used Neo Store though i have heard good things. I like droid-ify and have used it in the past.
Your comment is not really on topic. Could you put all your screenshots in a spoiler so that they dont take up all that space?
::: spoiler Screenshots Images :::Btw are you using InviziblePro and the GMail app? Haha that is a bit hypocritical, GMail works with K9Mail.
Sorry I can’t help with F-Droid, but check out Droidify! Hopefully it works for you too
@lemmyrolinga@lemmy.ml I second Bitflip’s comment.
F-droid repos are amazing and a must-have, but the default F-droid front-end is not the most user-friendly.
I have been very happy with the Droidify front-end, as have other F-droid users to whom I recommended it.
You can get Droidify using F-Droid, of course.
I third Droidify
I used fdroid for the longest time.
Then I found the neo store.
It recognises the apps installed, from whatever repo you use. Shows recommended update based on that. So many options. Comes with dozens of repos ready to go and incredibly simple to enable/disable.
Read about how Android SDK versions work. There is a minimum SDK and a target SDK.
The SDK is a set of libraries shipped with the OS, so if people use outdated Android versions (which especially since Android 11 seems to be horrifyingly common), apps with a higer minSDK than what is shipped will not run.
F-Droid targets outdated Android versions, for sustainability and stuff.
F-Droid Basic targets the latest SDK and runs very fine. I use it purely, for browsing apps and adding repos. For installing I use Obtainium, as otherwise I would rely on IzzyOnDroid a ton.
