The version code will be incremented once we hit version 1.0
.
Thanks – but why not starting now? Without that, those who prefer using an F-Droid client to manage their apps (VueTube is available here) will never receive update notifications before you reach 1.0 – and each update in the repo would overwrite the previous version (instead of multiple versions being available). As pointed out, versionCode
is what Android uses to tell versions apart, so it's crucial to increase that whenever propagating a new version.
Just wondering and suggesting – I will of course respect your decision.
@Frontesque currently, you app is never updated in my repo (and neither on the devices of most people) as versionCode
is still set to 1
. My updater won't even find the latest version as you've attached a ZIP there instead of an APK. Further, currently it doesn't really look like 1.0
will ever be reached as there are no more commits since July. So may I ask what your plans are?
I didn't build the latest version. My life has been too crazy to work on this and it seems like the rest of the team that was working on it has stopped.
Ouch… So who has the signing keys? Can you build & sign (and will you)? No pressure, I just want to figure how to continue.
Steps to reproduce
Just run
aapt d badging VueTube-Canary-0.4.2.apk
to see it's still set to1
:Expected behavior
versionCode
is increased with each release, so Android considers the new APK being an update to the installed app.Actual behavior
No update notification as Android considers the new APK being the same version.
