Anyone know why showing permissions was removed from the new f droid update? Can i revert back or use a different client perhaps? I feel like that was an important feature
It is a known issue, MR was merged 2 weeks ago, it will come back in the next version: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidclient/-/merge_requests/1795
Awesome thanks for that info
Droid-ify still shows permissions
I’ll check that out thanks. Any issue having it and the official client? Being that I installed some from the main app, would droid ify be able to take over updating them all without uninstalling and reinstalling
Yes, droidify also uses fdroid repo (and more) so there should not be any conflicts in signatures. You might get a popup/confirmation when you update the apps for the first time indicating this app was previously updated by fdroid.
I’ve had both forever. It’s been a while, but I remember switching without much issues.
Okay great. As long as theres no issue no harm having both. Id prefer to stick with f droid official app but at least I can use the other before download to check permissions.
I’m on F-Droid 1.23.2 and at the bottom of several apps I still show permissions… What version do you have? A beta?
F-Droid is at v2.0.2 now. The thing is that it isn’t listed as a stable release (at least in Droid-ify), even though it should be.
2.0.1 the first with the new UI
i’m on 2.0.2, but i’m on graphene and i’m not having any problems.
I updated from their website to 2.0.2 and still doesn’t show permission per app. Other than that theres no other problems I’m having.
Ouch. Well I’m dumb. Installed the update, hated it, had to uninstall and reinstall my old APK from March. Got back my old version, stupidly didn’t screenshot my repos. Fixed now, but oversight on my part! 😥
