Thanks and keep the good work just a suggestion when share apks here always provide the check sum that we can verify the app was not tampered and for yourself reputation if someone's else now tampered with the app and share somewhere is not good for you.... providing the check sum prevents malicious actors.
### #Amethyst v0.70.0: Background Video Playback (alpha)
Now you can "pin" streams and videos to the background and keep using the app/the phone while watching/listening to it.
Keep an eye out for bugs, this is a massive restructuring of how the video playback system used to work
- Moves Video/Audio player to a foreground service.
- Migrates Feed, Stories, and Live Stream screens to use that service
- Blocks screen from going to sleep if a video is playing.
- Blocks WIFI from going to sleep if an online video is playing.
- Allows the app to pause while listening to media and continue playing
- Manages cache for up to 30 videos in parallel for each of the 3 categories: local, streaming, progressive content
- Activates the use of popups with artwork that points to the screen with the video
- Creates a button to allow any video to play while browsing the app/phone
- Moves app to SingleTop mode.
- Keeps viewed position cached for up to 100 videos.
- Restructures the starting screen from App Navigation

Discussion
Isn't that automated for Android APKs? The phone doesn't install the app if it doesn't match the previous version's signing keys.
