Accrescent Store? #521

Open PrivacyAndSecurity opened 1 week ago

PrivacyAndSecurity commented 1 week ago

Hey,

can you publish Exodus Privacy App in the Accrescent Store? I would love to see it there and download it from there!

Maybe you ask why we want this or what Benefits it would have for us as Users.

The Benefits for me would be a few, like these:

I could get Exodus Privacy from Accrescent, which I already installed and use to download Apps. I prefer Accrescent over Github, because on Accrescent the App get's checked before it comes to the Store and the Apps are always checked, like for example the SDK of Apps, if there is Malware and more.

It would make it a lot easier for me and save me time, because Exodus Privacy is one of the few Apps, I use in Obtainium to download. And if my last few Apps would come to Accrescent, I wouldn't need to use Obtainium. I just use it until my last few Apps on there come to Accrescent.

Apps on Github are not checked, but on Accrescent they are going trough Filters always. And I think that would make it more secure. And since Accrescent is on a good way in terms of Security and Privacy, I think that it will be really good in the Future. And I think that Apps which value Security and Privacy should make it available there. Because Accrescent have the same values in Security and Privacy.

I really hope that you Guys could make that possible, because it would have great Benefits for us as Users. And think like that: If we support them by adding Apps, we help them to grow from Alpha to Stable.

Accresent features I think matter for Exodus.

Security: Signed repository metadata App signing key pinning Name verification

Privacy: No remote APK signing No accounts

Hey, thanks for suggestion Are you conscient about the work needed to support this app on a new store (require to create an account, require to upload manually APK)?

I'm the people which have maintain this app during few years and I have stopped to maintain recently. And actually there are no developers on the project.

No problem, your welcome :-) And yes, I know the effort but in my opinion it is manageable, I would say. Out of my experience.

Oh, I did not know that. May I ask why you stopped to maintain it? Oh wow! What will happen then in the Future with the App, Website, Social Media and everything?

Apologies but where is the matrix room to discuss the development of the app? All I see is IRC.

Project continues to be maintained by Exodus Privacy organization, but mobile development is stopped for now. With latest changes on mobile app, I think she can continue to be used by users during two years without problems. Matrix channel has been stopped after problem encountered with Matrix bridge. If you want to contribute to the project, you can contact EP organization with this address contact@exodus-privacy.eu.org

@PrivacyAndSecurity Hi, no worries for this: Website, Social Media and everything are still maintained. Only the Android app is currently without a maintainer. Maybe we will soon ask for help, but for now the app works and is stable.
