Oki, Aurora Droid aka A-Droid is now beta ready !
A-Droid is still in its early developement phase, bugs are expected !
As of now A-Droid packs only the basic features ie. Repo Sync, App Downloads, Updates & Search
+ few themes.
More features will be added as per the requirements as the developement cycle goes on.
#How to use A-Droid
1. Adding & Syncing Repo :
By default no repo is synced, you are prompted with an IntroPage where you can selected your required repos, out of a predefined list of popular repos (24 repos), you can always add new repos by scanning QR or Entering the Urls manually. (The Repolists are also available in Settings -> Repository)
2. Authenticity of Repos :
Just longpress on the repo list to view the urls & fingerprints of each repo, will also attach the list of default repos here, as of now the fingerprints are not matched after downloading the repos (WIP)
3. Missing apps & updates :
A-Droid shows only those apps which exists in the repos you have synced, all other apps are filtered.
As of now, only one instance of app is available at a time.
ie. if an app name A is present in repo X & Y, then either X(A) or Y(A) is available, based on the order repos are synced. (Will improve asap)
4. Theme inconsistency
I haven't checked the theme on devices running 5.x & 6.x, if you encounter any issues.
Let me know.
5. Missing icons
The icons of some apps are not mapped correctly in the repo itself, those app icons tent to be blank.
There is no way I can fix or improve it, some have extension issue like Termux has .xml as extension in image url, such issues can be fixed but not all. (Will see if Regex can help).
6. XYZ Repo fails to sync
Not an app issue, some repos have downtime or may be someother issue, like I2P the "index-v1.jar" is inaccesible, such repos fail to sync.
7. Why A-Droid needs camera permissions ?
Its required to scan the QR Code in order to add repo.
# As always, I'm open to suggestions & discussions, feel free ping me.
