Awesome app. It is somehow not listed on android-foss list so maybe someone didn’t know about it.

    The apk isn’t always what f-droid compiles. There’s two scenarios where they publish the apk signed by the developer.

    It’s one added layer of security to you, but to others it’s a man in the middle that could be an extra attack vector.

    If you don’t trust the dev to put out an apk that’s compiled from their public source why are you trusting any of your data with them?
