Kill F-Droid im.vector.alpha #3507

Open bmarty opened 4 years ago

bmarty commented 4 years ago

On the same principle than https://github.com/vector-im/riotX-android/issues/1727, we should properly kill the app im.vector.alpha on F-Droid

On F-Droid, a new app has been created, so https://f-droid.org/en/packages/im.vector.alpha/ should be un-installed by user, and they should then install https://f-droid.org/packages/im.vector.app/

A latest update of im.vector.alpha on F-Droid should inform the users about that.

We can import the beta popup of RiotX to do so and adapt for F-Droid

Also the description of the legacy app on F-Droid could be updated, maybe we can do this first @Bubu ?

The description already has a note at the top pointing to element. How should the description look like now?

Ok, perfect, I think there is no need to do more on the description. Thanks!
