Unfortunately I don’t have good news on the state of the android app: I am retiring it. The last release on Github and F-Droid will happen with the December 2024 Syncthing version. Reason is a combination of Google making Play publishing something between hard and impossible and no active maintenance. The app saw no significant development for a long time and without Play releases I do no longer see enough benefit and/or have enough motivation to keep up the ongoing maintenance an app requires ...
If they nuke it, I’ll let it die. If they don’t want my app thats fine, I’ll publish apks on github or something.
The “old apps need updates” policy makes no sense, until you realise it requires no human intervention. It should be “broken apps need updates”, but that requires someone to test the app.
The privacy policy and other requirements they have added recently have also been pointless exercises in futility as well.
