It wants me to uninstall and reinstall since the signature of different, which makes sense as it from a different source, but it doesn’t mention anything in the changelog.

    Do you know why the signatures would be different? At my company we release our app on Google play, galaxy and Amazon store and I’m pretty sure we use the same signing key for each

      because fdroid build all of their apps themselves, so every app on the fdroid repo uses the fdroid signing key

        Interesting, I was not aware of that. sounds like a security risk, as you don’t know who actually published it, but I guess since its open source that doesn’t really matter as much

          It’s actually the opposite, an evil developer could upload in GitHub an apk with malware not included in the source, while fdroid guarantees that it matches with the source published
