Whether to use manager or LSpatch

[shreksbananas]

Description

I'm rather new to patched/modded apps on android, so please excuse the silly questions. I have successfully set up the latest SE CI build on my non rooted device using LSpatch and shizuku; however I came across the manager file in the debug CI artifacts and was wondering whether I should be using that instead of LSpatch. Does it update SE on its own for me, and does it support the debug builds? Also if I want to keep my actual Snapchat app always up to date, do I need to start the patch process all over again? I couldn't find answers to these questions in neither the wiki nor the readme. Thank you in advance.

I suggest that you use LSPatch instead, as the manager is no longer really maintained, although there are only release builds in it. Also every time you want to update Snapchat, you'll have to repatch using LSPatch, but you don't have to repatch if you're just updating SnapEnhance

@rhunk Thank you for the response. If I only want to update SnapEnhance, do I simply only download the latest CI build APK and uninstall the old one? Also, I'm confused whether I should be installing the core.apk file or the universal debug file, as different people have told me different things.
