Which downloads the file from fdroid, I rather get it direct from source to be honest, so I can keep up with the changes.
Zap store has a section for me that shows all my apps that have an update available.
But if there is a better way to install you can let me know I will be interested to take a look.
Obtainium alerts you if there is an update aswell and you can search the app in multiple places like: github, gitlab, fdroid and a few more.
I have used obtanium but I did not understand the benifit.
It seems from what you have said that the benifit is that you get it direct from the publisher of the app.
Glad to learn why it might be preferred.
For me obtainium has multiple benefits:
1. You download it from the source (when available)
2. If 1 is not possible yeah can still download it from fdroid when available there.
Offcourse it would be cool if obtainium adds searching Nostr apps from the zap.store but we can only hope right 😜
The opposite is more likely😄 That you can find any github, gitlab, fdroid, etc apps from within zap.store
Then I'm misinformed and I stand corrected. So your telling me you basically work the same as Obtainium?
No. Obtainium allows downloading APKs from remote sites. It therefore has a huge catalog, but search UX is terrible imo. We index instead, so have a smaller catalog but better search. But we could add an auto index, or bring your APK functionality. And obviously we strive to have as many devs signing apps on nostr, while Obtainium likely won't.
Oke so to sum things up:
Zap.store is also downloading the apk's from github, gitlab, fdroid etcetera?
But has the advantage of having signed APK's through nostr?
I'm trying to understand how it works so if I'm wrong please feel free to correct me.
