GitHub Store 1.8.2 β Polish, Hide, Cross-OS
πͺΆ GitHub Store 1.8.2 β Polish, Hide, Cross-OS
Foundation Sprint reliability + survey-driven polish.
β¨ New
- Ignore updates per app β silence the badge for apps you don't want bumped.
- Skip a release β dismiss false-positive prompts; re-notified on the next one.
- Silent install via root β Magisk / KernelSU / APatch, no Shizuku required.
- Search Starred + Favourites β filter by name, owner, description, language.
- Self-owned β badge β verified mark on your own repos when signed in.
- Hide repository β long-press a card; manage in Tweaks β Updates β Hidden repositories.
- Multi-OS release picker β "Show all platforms" grabs APKs from desktop, .debs from phone; cross-platform downloads open in your browser.
π Fixed
- Uninstalled apps clear from the tracked list instantly.
- No more false "already installed" prompts on multi-artifact releases.
- Sequential installs serialize correctly; Apps stays in sync.
- Auto-update no longer picks F-Droid sibling APKs by mistake.
- Search empty-list bug β explains + one-tap reset when "Hide seen" hides every hit.
β‘ Improved
- Aggressive-OEM background updates (Oppo / OnePlus / Realme / Xiaomi / vivo / Honor) β battery-opt shortcut + expedited workers.
- Dhizuku on Android 14+ retries without installer attribution.
- Coachmark on the per-app beta channel chip β surfaces the toggle people missed.
Windows note: this release ships unsigned .exe / .msi. SignPath Foundation has approved the project; production cert still pending review.
