bug(import/export): Buttons missing: Import selection, export selection, Apps #283

Closed Nojevah closed 6 months ago

Describe the bug Maybe it's because of the actual bug preventing updating app, but I think it will still be a problem. "Import selection" and "export selection" are missing. Also, when there's an update, it replaces the button "Apps"; so if you go into settings, you can't go back to the "apps" screen.

Expected behavior The 3 buttons should always be visible.

This is not a bug. The UI was redesigned a while ago. Use backup selection in the review modal instead

Sorry I don't understand your answer. How do I export a selection in a text file, and how do I import this text file to automatically check packages from this selection ?

You don't anymore, this is replaced by a new backup feature. I however think it's less usable than what it used to be.

Sorry I still don't understand. What is this new backup feature ? Maybe it would help describing how I use this app:

In the past, I have uninstalled apps via adb shell or via this app (I don't use rRecommended/advanced/expert/etc. lists since they don't apply to me at all)
then comes the first best part of this app: I export all uninstalled apps in a file
when I reinstall a phone, I use the 2nd best part, I import the .txt file, all apps are checked, and I just uninstall all apps in 1 click.

If I can't export/import a text file, you'll understand I prefer the old uad.

I aggree with this, but the old feature was problematic. I think we should open a feature request for "debloat lists" where it would export the names of selected packages, then try to import them when opened.

I understand your frustration, however the GUI and underlying mechanisms had to change due to the implementation of lists. Feel free to open a feature request, describing the feature you want in as much detail as possible.
