Option : Share with AppVerifier #1686

Closed Maell1 closed 1 week ago

Hello,

I don't understand the option "Share with AppVerifier". I installed AppVerifier and when I update an app, I don't have any information about the signature...

Maybe it shows a message when the signature doesn't match?

Thanks

You only need to verify the signature when you install the app. For updates, Android makes sure the new APK's signature is identical to the existing one: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trust_on_first_use

When you install a new app, you'll be prompted to share it with AppVerifier first.
