And it supposed to allow “notification updates” when new versions come out, though it’s been on 1.7.0 for quite some time.
Does izzysoft makes sure not to include apks which are already included in the official f-droid repo? It includes many apks already… And I’d rather grab the ones on official f-droid, with some exceptions, like the newpipe repo, but it doesn’t include anything else but newpipe…
Thanks for the pointer ! And yes, no worries about apkgrabber not getting updates, I just mentioned it, in case the notification update seemed good enough. I do prefer the f-droid way, whenever available, :)

Are these considered safe? Do you have to check for updates yourself?
Yes they are clean APKs, i.e. not modified and the original signature is preserved. So they’re as safe as the Google Play Store.
Regarding updates, I recommend checking out https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/de.apkgrabber
Thanks! Will do
I do use apkgrabber, but I’ve always got it from:

Izzy removes packages that are mutual with F-droid after a week or so. See here.
And apkgrabber not getting updates isn’t crucial if it the app works fine as it is intended.
