FDroid vs FDroid Basic (lemmy.ml)

submitted 2 weeks ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

21 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I've using FDroid for some time now, but now it says "it was developed for an older Android version (I'm on 14) and can't update automatically" I read that FDroid Basic was recommended for newer phones, so I installed and copied my repos (still have both apps) but it doesn't recognize my installed apps. Am I missing something?

I used fdroid for the longest time.

Then I found the neo store.

It recognises the apps installed, from whatever repo you use. Shows recommended update based on that. So many options. Comes with dozens of repos ready to go and incredibly simple to enable/disable.
