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.

    It will recognize your apps once they get one update and then they will begin auto-updating again like they were. But fdroid itself is increasing its Android versions to catch up. I think it’s targeting Android 10 or 11 now when it was targeting like Android 6.

    Sorry I can’t help with F-Droid, but check out Droidify! Hopefully it works for you too

      @lemmyrolinga@lemmy.ml I second Bitflip’s comment.

      F-droid repos are amazing and a must-have, but the default F-droid front-end is not the most user-friendly.

      I have been very happy with the Droidify front-end, as have other F-droid users to whom I recommended it.

      You can get Droidify using F-Droid, of course.
