Launcher Cannot Be Updated
If you are trying to update the launcher, but the installation fails, you are most likely trying to crossgrade from the F-Droid version to the Github version or vice versa. Both versions use different signing keys, so you cannot update one with the other.
Kvaesitso versions
There are two different release versions of Kvaesitso:
- Github version: This is the version that is released on Github. It includes all features and is also available on the MM20 F-Droid repository and on the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repository.
- F-Droid version: This version is built and signed, and distributed by the F-Droid maintainers. It is available on the official F-Droid repository. Some features disabled that depend on external APIs; most notably, there are fewer weather providers available. Furthermore, new versions are usually released with a delay (a few days up to a week).
Check which version you have installed
Go to Settings > About. If the version number is something like x.y.z
, you have the Github version installed. If the version number ends in -fdroid
, you have the F-Droid version installed.
Switch between versions
You cannot switch versions without uninstalling the current version first. First, backup your data in Settings > Backup & restore. Then, uninstall the current version and install the other version. You can then restore your data in Settings > Backup & restore > Restore.
