Github Store 1.4.0
🚨 Breaking changes
- Installed apps are now tracked.
Apps installed via Github Store are stored locally, and the app can now detect when an update is available so you can update them directly from Github Store. - On desktop, downloaded installers are now saved to your system Downloads folder instead of an internal temp directory.
✨ New features
- Installed apps database and update checking, including a new Apps screen on Android for managing installed applications.
- AppImage support and improved Linux installer logic (DEB/RPM/AppImage) for a smoother desktop installation experience.
- Dynamic color theme support on Android (Material You), with the “Dynamic” option shown only when supported.
- AMOLED black theme option for dark mode, configurable in Settings and persisted via DataStore.
- “Open in AppManager” integration on Android to inspect APKs (permissions, trackers, etc.) before installing.
- Home screen categories reworked: TRENDING, RECENTLY_UPDATED, and NEW now use clearer, time‑based filters for more relevant results.
- Ability to cancel downloads from the UI.
- New Material 3 Expressive design: updated components, motion, shapes, and progress indicators for a more polished look.
🛠 Improvements and fixes
- Device flow auth now avoids the explicit
reposcope for safer, narrower permissions. - Desktop downloads now land in the user’s Downloads folder, with a snackbar to confirm where the file was saved.
- Home UI tweaks and small layout fixes (e.g., preventing text wrapping in filter chips).
- Documentation and download section updates, including macOS notes and minor HTML fixes.
- Installer generation and various internal refactors to keep the codebase maintainable.
