Added

  • Check for updates — Settings → About → "Check for updates" compares the app version with the latest GitHub release.
  • In-app update — When a newer version is available, "Download and install" downloads the APK and opens the system installer (no need to leave the app).
  • Download progress — Progress bar during APK download (determinate when size is known, indeterminate otherwise).
  • Release notes — "What's new" section in the update dialog shows the GitHub release notes (markdown).
  • Install fallback — If download or install fails, the dialog shows the error and an "Open release page" button to install from the browser.
  • Update-check caching — Successful check results are cached for 5 minutes; errors are not cached so Retry always hits the API.

Changed

  • User-friendly update errors — Update check and install failures show short messages (e.g. "No internet connection", "Connection timed out") instead of raw errors.

Technical

  • GitHub API — User-Agent header; separate HTTP client for downloads with longer read timeout.
  • Install intentFLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP and FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY for more reliable install flow on Android 7+.
