So I would like to have or host public or private(preferably) a big ol pile of Fdroid apps,
Which regularly update,
But that I can pull from and install at any time,
Including specifically Without Internet.
I guess it would have to be in APKs then, I assume.
What would be the Easiest, Best, and/or Most Efficient ways of achieving this?
Options?
Looked around the webs for a bit and after hitting pretty much all dead ends,
I’ve just realized…
I don’t actually know what the hell I’m looking for.
This response should probably have more detail, but here is what I just recently started doing a few hours ago for my phone backup:
use an apk/app data backup tool like Seedvault or Neo, using SD card as backup location
sync to my seafile (or nextcloud, drive, etc) server
That is just what I do for basic safe phone backup if it helps anyone. Later I will look for or create something to select and mirror f-droid builds/apks.
I hope we find something good together for this task.
Yeah I don’t mind that for general backup.
…Although I’ve been meaning to explore both of those. Does neo need root?
What actually would be awesome, is if there was a way to build a personal list of apps with immediate concise descriptions, something like AppListBackup;
But in addition to a good list it also
downloads backups of each of those apps,
Presumably for the device your running,
although it would be great to select multiple Android versions also.
If on device, these apps could be installed or sit Not installed.
And importantly;
the backups Really “need” to be auto updating and
INSTALLABLE OFFLINE if needed.
Even if it did have to be done with APKs; in that case it could just downloaded the new one,
and unless you lock or tag a particular build,
It just replaces the previous APK entirely.
…Or w.e if it did save them all, and I had to go back and clean up manually, when all my memory disappears, that’s…fine too ha
Would be great if this could be quickly ran on a PC
(Without scripts. Unless anyone has some already That they can share )
I’d gladly settle for an auto updating backup on my computer.
Somebody,
Please tell me theres SomeThinG totally passing over my head, that could achieve this…or close…
