From GitHub description. "Any other URL that returns an HTML page with links to APK files (if multiple, the last file alphabetically is picked)". I assume yes.

Yeah but my issue is that it doesn't work :) I point it to a simple HTML page listing only links to APK files in it (namely, the Aurora Store nightlies) and the only thing is does is show a black bar for a couple of seconds and nothing happens.

[–] FarLine99@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Flaw. I think you should create a bug on GitHub.

[–] ExtremeDullard@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I probably should, but the truth is, the app doesn't interest me enough to bother. I wanted to use it to automatically track Aurora Store nightly builds for when the stable version gets broken by Google, as Google regularly does. But when it happens, all I have to do is open a link bookmarked in my browser.

I figured I'd ask here to figure out if I missed some configuration or something. If it's a bug, I'll just uninstall the thing and forget about it.
