  1. @Androidauth

    Version number 68469120 still works. People can enter that one in #Aurorastore and hopefully it is still cached.

    If your camera still works, install an app like github.com/ghmxr/apkextractor and extract the #APK, share with others!

    Otherwise checkout #APKPure or #APKMirror

    Look for version 9.9.106.77...

  2. Hey there, nerdbrains,

    I cant remember how I did this the last time I set up a phone two years ago...

    I'm trying to install Google/Pixel camera on my #Pixel 7 running #AOSP-based #Iodé, but #AuroraStore says it's not compatible with my device.

    I'd preferably like to get the old version I was running before, 9.0.115.586536401.40 (before they ruined the UI).

    Does anyone know where I can get a working APK for my device?

    I downloaded "com.google.android.GoogleCamera_9.0.115.586536401.40-66739056_18feat_0d88f0ed679ba77732b303a399904412_apkmirror.com.apkm" from #APKMirror, but it just crashes.

    Any ideas?

  3. Wieder mal so nervig …

    Die Krankenkassen-App auf dem Smartphone äußert, die installierte Version werde von der Krankenkasse nicht mehr unterstützt. Aus dem Play Store lässt sich leider kein Update beziehen, da dort hinterlegt ist, dass die App auf dem Smartphone nicht laufe. Also muss ich von apkmirror.com die Installationsdatei der neuesten APP-Version manuell herunterladen und installieren. Die App läuft anschließend ohne jegliche Funktionseinschränkung.

    Das ließe sich lösen, wenn sich die Einschätzung der Lauffähigkeit nach dem verwendeten OS (LineageOS 19.1, also Android 12) und nicht nach dem Smartphonemodell (letzte Androidversion seitens des Herstellers: Android 8) richtete. Hmpf.

  5. Ajouter #Fdroid il faut télécharger son fichier APK:

    wget f-droid.org/F-Droid.apk

    Et lancer la commande suivante:

    #waydroid app install F-Droid.apk

    Et pour le non libre et vu qu'on utilise des containers (waydroid fonctionne via LXC) ben j'utilise les paquets présents sur #ApkMirror (notamment pour Discord)

    #librem5

    4/4

  6. @Zander @techlore it is okay. Sometimes I can't find certain apps I want. #Apkpure is one of the few options after #aurora and #apkmirror . Have been using it since a few years as a second/third pick. Haven't had any issues with the apps yet. The only issue is it being a little ad-heavy.
    (PS: Apologies for replying two-months late. Was not logging in for some time. Hope the answer is still useful.)

  7. I'll also note that on APK Mirror, v. 8.1.1.0 has more downloads than any release of Pocket dating back to 7.64.1.0, in September of 2022.

    Which would suggest some possible level of agreement that it is in fact preferable to other releases.

  12. OK, this is getting fucking ridiculous.

    I've installed and reverted three versions of Pocket so far trying to find one that performs with a tolerable level of annoyance. This is hours spent managing a fucking application's brokenness instead of being able to read and research.

    Hint: It's not 8.5, 8.3, or 8.2. Currently trying 8.1, from February, though I swear I'd updated since then (I usually check for updates on apps weekly). I'll update parent when I find it.

    OK: 8.1.1.0 seems to revert both behaviours. That's the 17 February 2023 release here: apkmirror.com/apk/mozilla-corp

    Meanwhile ... the Google Play reviews discussion is illuminating, and the natives are not happy as of April, 2023:

    play.google.com/store/apps/det (Archived as that's a dynamic page: web.archive.org/web/2023070822)

    Also #ApkMirror is a motherfucking godsend for situations such as this: apkmirror.com/

  17. So, Pocket, the article-archival tool that keeps getting worse the more you use it, has just become immeasurably worse.

    I've reverted from version 8.6.x to no, not 8.5, not 8.4, not 8.2, but 8.1.1.0 from freaking February of this year to revert these completely fucking brain-dead changes.

    The TL;DR: link is apkmirror.com/apk/mozilla-corp

    That's what you want to install and freeze on until Pocket catches a motherfucking clue.

    I've had a long an unhappy relationship with this feature and app. Its sole claims to my continued use are that it holds nearly 5 GB of content hostage, and that it, unbelievably, seems to be the best of what is an immensely shitty application space. See my now-six-year-old rant virtually all of which remains valid: web.archive.org/web/2019051209

    Most recently, Pocket has lost two features:

    • A "page flip" mode, which though itself hugely flawed, is better than scrolling through articles, especially on e-ink devices.

    • The ability to view all articles either in the (hugely preferable, very useful) #ReadabilityJS view, or in-app in a "web view". The latter now revert to your device's default Web Browser app on mobile devices.

    The problem with that latter is that the task of annotating and tagging articles (my principle remaining justification for Pocket) is made vastly more tedious --- and it's already more than adequately tedious in previous Pocket versions. To the point it's not even worthwhile.

    Fortunately, I was able to hunt down a prior version of the app (using the APKMirror app), and I will not be upgrading Pocket beyond the most recent version I can find which still supports both Page Flip and Web View modes, as noted above 8.1.1. from 17 February 2023. (Few if any of Pocket's "improvements" over the past five years have had any value to me whatsoever, so this is little loss.)

    There is of course a Relevant xkcd: "Software Updates":

    xkcd.com/2224/

    I would so like to see a useful document-management solution for tablets and e-ink devices with the ability to managed both offline and online (Web-based) content.

    Boosts and re-sharing this on other platforms is strongly encouraged.

    Edits: I'm updating this toot as I'm finding out more. In particular, what version(s) of Pocket are NOT affected by these changes is not yet clear.

  18. How to download Android apps without the Google Play Store: Who needs Google Play when you have APK Mirror?

  19. @fdroidorg Foxy Droid with #FDroid, Guardian, #FireFox and @IzzyOnDroid repos. I used to get a few manually via #APKMirror, but haven't in years.

    TBH I never really used the Play Store so I don't know what I'm missing, but I'm happy with my F-Droid life.

  20. @yarmo yeah, okay. Same situation here 😛

    One option is to scour ; of course that doesn't get the majority of popular apps (and very few bloated ones). has a decent collection, but I wonder if they have a decent API to use. Let me check 🔍

  21. @murtezayesil I'm GApps free and switched to FOSS apps myself. Still use a a couple apps from the Playstore that can't really be replaced, like banking. I just installed from and use the APKupdater app from to keep them updated.

  22. Aggiornato #Searx il #metamotore di ricerca hackerabile e rispettoso della #privacy

    molti motori sono ritornati a funzionare fra cui #startpage con i risultati di google

    Aggiunto il motore di #invidious per avere i video #youtube senza pubblicità e tracker.

    Aggiunti anche i #motori:

    #Splash
    #Apkmirror
    #NPM search
    #Invidious
    #seedpeer

    inoltre molto migliorata la ricerca di #torrent con maggiori fonti disponibili.

  24. So, #YouTube closed/neutered their #YouTubeGaming app too, which is a shame, as I used that to record gameplay footage, and I can't find that functionality in the normal YouTube #Android app. There's "Go Live" in the Android app (for which my channel is not eligible apparently), and a "Record" function, but that just records camera output.
    I know there's the #PlayGames app, but recording there often stops prematurely.

    So, thanks to #APKMirror, I just downgraded to the June 2018 version.

  25. @cj
    could try downloading the APK from #APKMirror if you're on Android? Here in #Norway it was on the #PlayStore already.
