Folks using Google's PlayStore to download #Amethyst should switch to Zapstore.dev if you want to see the new version (and get the fastest bugfixes)

Or stop wearing a mask and use @Zapstore.

Have to uninstall it first because of change in signatures
The update now makes amethyst crash constantly for me the second it begins to load & is totslly unusable for me thanks!
🫵 I want you to de-google your phone 🫵
obtanium too 😉
Oh shit. This fast and smooth asf....
I'll do that, thank you!!
Your patience and dedication replying and addressing almost every single note regarding bugs or doubts is admirable ✨
You should do it anyway
Folk Google Play Store!
Zapstore needs to be verified, and the only way to do that is using another custom app (App verify) that requires a *different* app store (Apprescent) to download... And presumably I should be verifying Apprescent too!! 😵
Geez this stuff really isn't ready for primetime yet
Github APK master race checking in!
I have to download another app so I can download the update?
So you can be free from Google. :)
Ok. Does that mean no more updates on Play?
I will do it, but it takes forever over there.
No worries. I'm just overloaded with apps on my phone.
FYI I went ahead and did this... used a separate computer to verify the hash... But let's not kid ourselves that this is going to ever be an option for anyone who's never used a command line
we did some zap tests on this note… we made six attempts to⚡zap this note, at ln@ln.postotherstuff.com, over a period of 4 minutes. in each case, we found that your lightning address server did not respond correctly. (the failure point was when we did a get request to your specified callback url: https://ln.postotherstuff.com/lnurlp/api/v1/lnurl/cb/7S5M99 ). your server did not produce an invoice, thus the zap failed. the error we got was "Amount 1000 is smaller than minimum <built-in function min>.". if you wanted to fix this... you could try getting a free rizful lightning address --
... if u get it set up, pls reply here so we can do this ⚡zap test again.

Rizful: Lightning Services
Free Lightning vaults, and instant, disposable Lightning Nodes.
We don't need google. It's a waste of time. Just forget about google and move on.
@Zapstore is great! I run it and Obtainium for any app I can get.
Why is it signed with a different key?


I have an old version need to update
I downloaded from GitHub awhile back but never installed it, still using the Play store version.
I'll use the zapstore when i bother updating.
From Google play? It is. Google signs that one :(
So there's no way to even get the signing key anymore? You could distribute the google apk via @Zapstore or does zapstore not handle AABs well?
From Google? No, they never share the key.
They used to not get the key, then they "allowed" devs to share the keys with them, then they suggested/pushed for that and now, for new projects you don't even get the option to sign dev-to-client yourself.
Most people will trust the domain name zapstore.dev, so there's that.
Or use the "who signed this file" tool, it's right there in the downloads page.
Apologies if Zapstore is not yet the default store on Android.
If you want any adoption and usage of this at all, it needs a WAY easier UX.
I'm lost
This 💯
I'm lost
Of what? Zapstore?
"Who signed this file" links to some API endpoint gobbledygook. What's worse: clicking on it leads to a page that says "certificate expired."
"Just trust us" can't be the solution when 100% of smartphone cybersecurity advice for normies is "For the love of God, DON'T INSTALL APPS from unknown sources."
Yes, having to DL and verify a couple different apps in order to get to the zapstore. Plus copy and paste a hash into where? No clue
What is your suggestion then?
If you are not comfortable verifying an app why are you doing it?
You can literally visit this nostr profile, click link and install.
That's because I have a minimum of 21000 msats or 21 sats
Fix whatever causing it to crash after 2 seconds in 10.0.0.5 Also are you gunna fix the damn media permissions so I can finally browse & look at other folders besides download & favorites?
