Build outside Google Play

[Sixthhokage1]

For devices that lack access to Google Play, it would be nice to have an APK downloadable elsewhere.

It was in Google Play before. I wonder what happened.

@hbons rethinks the current strategy for mobile clients and asked me to remove it from the Google Play Store. You can still build the apk yourself and use ist.

@NewProggie Is there any documentation on the rationale of that decision? Building my own .apk to install on my phone feels like way too much hassle. I can't even imagine what that would be like for any non-developer.

Or is the idea discontinuing SparkleShare-Android altogether?

[NewProggie]

@emanchado It wasn't my decision. So you better ask @hbons for his big idea ;-)

@NewProggie

Are there any legal issues?

[NewProggie]

@lkwg82 not that I'm aware of

Hi guys, any updates about that? That's a bit sad that it's not available on Google Play any more.
