    Huh? I’m pretty sure fdroid did a silent update without asking me. I think Aurora store also did silent updates. I mean, I still have to allow it once, then afterwards it didn’t need my permission.

    What android version are you on? I’m on the latest Android 14.

      Session installer ⚫

      Session based installer for bundled/split APKs
      Recommended, in-built and supports all Android versions

      Native installer (Deprecated) ⚫

      Intent based installer, available on all devices
      Best suited for devices running below Android 4.4

      Root installer 🔘

      Shell based installer using root permissions
      Requires root/superuser privileges, supports all Android versions.

        Ah so its has to be a new Android 14 feature.

        So basically: If you’ve done at least 1 update using a third-party appstore for an app, it automatically give permission for third-party appstores to update that particular app for future updates, without prompting the user.
