Awesome. First client I used, still works great, cheers.

I just recently discovered the Obtainium app, which solves this probably neatly. It can monitor and update apps directly from GitHub as well as from many other sources. I switched my Jerboa updates from Google Play to Obtainium, set it to include pre-release candidates, and it updated my Jerboa to 0.0.54.

This release broke for me; had to roll back

[-] testAccount@programming.dev 3 points 11 months ago

Can you tell me what broke?

[-] Lucien@hexbear.net 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I don't know; the app kept putting up a toast message and dying. I don't recall what the message was. Does the app record logs somewhere?

[-] testAccount@programming.dev 4 points 11 months ago

Not in a way that is easily shareable. Working on a log viewer next.

Is there a way to manually update? My home instance upgraded and now the app crashes at login (still on v0.0.50)

[-] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 months ago

you can grab the apk off the releases page (latest is now v.0.0.54-alpha to fix some login problems)

[-] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 months ago

Thanks. I'm probably not doing it right because when I download and open the APK it behaves like it'll update the app but then gives an error. "Package conflicts with existing package"

[-] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 months ago

ah, in that case you need to uninstall and reinstall

[-] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Thought as much. That solved the crashing issue! Now I just get an error when trying to log in, so progress I guess...

Edit: Looks like it was fixed in version 0.0.54! So uninstalled again and installed the new new update and it works again yay! I'm impressed by how fast that bug was addressed.

Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.
