Obtainium is one that I have been using for over a week now. It keeps all my FOSS apps up to date. I have 30 apps added now, and 80% of them are now updated directly from their github page!

I would love to know what apps you have added to it!

The easiest way is to look at your Installed apps through F-Droid as it will show both apps installed through F-Droid and apps from the Play Store that are available through F-Droid. You can copy-paste each source link into Obtainium.

No I know, I was asking what apps they’re updating through Obtanium.

I use Obtanium to keep Liftoff and Thunder up to date, since the updates come faster than they do from the Play Store :) Very easy to set up…even if you originally installed from the Play Store, you can still use Obtanium to update going forward.

Heres the list

And I just added AntennaPod, Vinyl Music Player, Lawnchair, and Liftoff to the list as well!

How did you manage to add breezy-weather? It complains that it can’t find a suitable release for me if I try to add the repo url directly

You have to use the include pre-releases option with Breezy.

Bitwardens auto sync uses push notifications through Google services, so I’d recommend play store for that one if you use multiple devices.

I don’t use bitwarden for much besides copying/pasting my passwords on my phone. I figure its better than memorizing a single password like I used to!
