1. Zapstore - 1.1.1
Zapstore is an open Android app store built on Nostr, allowing developers to publish apps directly while enabling community-driven discovery and curation. This release updated the welcome copy on the search screen and store listing metadata while fixing repeated device-key backup decryption during Amber session restore, trust dialog hangs when a publisher has no kind-0 profile, and the paused download button state.

2. ZSP - 0.4.14
ZSP is a fast CLI tool for publishing Android apps to Nostr relays and is used by Zapstore for app distribution. This release fixed app name and icon extraction issues, improved GitLab download path parsing, added Fastlane as a metadata source, introduced Tor fallback with retries for failed requests, and added default image compression.

Angor is a decentralized peer-to-peer funding protocol (in alpha stage) built on Bitcoin and Nostr that enables users to create and participate in decentralized investment projects. This unstable release fixed recovery scan crashes, improved spend scanning, added shared investment fee estimation and Nostr investment synchronization between the web app and desktop, improved parallel investment scanning, and fixed several UI issues including Android crashes and mobile navigation inconsistencies. This was the latest release of the week and was also another one, that was 0.2.33.
