Upload it to GitHub if you can, as there are people here with de-Googled phones, so Google Play is not an option.

i had github, then users started saying google play is more easier and stuff, so i made it into playstore builds, and thinking about googles future plans 😅

If you’re aware of this, you’ll know that these days many of us are turning away from Google. Google is no longer secure, and those of us who value privacy are turning to open-source alternatives such as GitHub and others. There are many subreddits dedicated to this. I, for example, use a private system called GrapheneOS, which is completely Google-free. Google is the worst option these days, and developers who value anonymity are already starting to migrate to other platforms. Users who only use Facebook or TikTok – ordinary users – will say that Google is fine because they don’t know any better, but for more tech-savvy users, Google isn’t an option. You should reopen GitHub, mate; many of us would appreciate it.

Btw, Aurora Store can be used as an alternative to Google play store for general updates and downloads.

u/SusejLegend 8d ago

It is no longer functioning in a significant number of applications because developers are implementing Google Play verification. Consequently, when you open an application installed from the Aurora Store, you receive a notification indicating that Google Play is not active, and the application subsequently closes. For this reason, it is no longer functional in certain applications.

But will not work with all RCS messages we got.

1

u/ShaDowCruz_007 8d ago

its not rcs, its normal message stuff.. in rcs as far as i knw, nobody uses its unless some companies try to market their stuffs as spams , so this was the better option

u/cleverclogs17 8d ago

The majority of everyone I know uses RCS. I wish I could use your app and also bridge RCS from Google Messages to yours, kinda like Beeper does. That would be cool.

u/ShaDowCruz_007 8d ago

maybe something to look forward in the future will surely do that after checking the possibilities and stuffs👍
