Version Number Tracking of Apps #10

Open psyscope opened 5 years ago

psyscope commented 5 years ago

There is an issue that ApkGrabber will consider different revision numbers on apps to be newer. For example different resolutions will be looked at newer versions of each other and it will try to update them. Same applies to Android Wear apps it gets confused and thinks they are compatible on our phones.

Somehow, APKUpdater itself seems to be a bit better @ this, even for the same app & settings.… 🤷‍♂️

hemker commented 5 years ago

was this related to the auto download feature or updates in general?

TPS commented 5 years ago

For myself, updates generally.

@psyscope is this the case for all sources? Or limited to APKMirror?

psyscope commented 5 years ago

This mainly happens with APK Mirror, I am not sure if it happens to GOogle Play Store, but often apps fail to install when you choose instal in your app. I suspect they are trying to install incompatible ones based on version number. I am showing you one example, this largely happens with Google Apps, and a few Facebook Apps. The bold number never changes, So you can look at the version number to see if you have the newest version. but then further cross check the bold number. The bold number is the type of build of the app, api, dpi, androi OS.
