Sorry for my ignorance, but how do you download these apps. I see nothing in releases.

Thanks for your assistance.

Edit: yes, the Fossify Fork, not the original Simple Mobile Apps version

While there aren't any new releases at this point, you could use Obtanium and point it to the repos for the apps you use. That way, you'd get notified once the releases start and you'd get them right from the developers.

    Thanks for your answer but I already tried that. Obtainium won't let me add it as there are no releases yet.

    After reading the "issues" discussion from w weeks ago, this is just an idea at this point. The simplemobiletools fork was a mock up for something that sounds like its very much in the planning/ideas stage. you can also go to fossify.org to see another mock up that does nothing right now. You could message one of them, but I think maybe its some MIT software team / group & their just tossing ideas around for a foss hub of sorts.

    I don't think any builds have been compiled yet. I have no real knowledge how, but but you could build your own by downloading developer tools an cloning the codebase. Probably better just to wait. How were you downloading Simple Mobile Tools previously?

    If you have the apps from F-Droid, there is no need to rush, I think. The F-Droid-apps are without adds and offline. They no longer receive updates, but they are not apps that need constant updates.

    Were you on the discussion on GitHub by chance? https://github.com/orgs/FossifyOrg/discussions/9
