Any idea why? I’ve been using it for months. I probably had to grant permission when I first installed it, but haven’t had to again since then, until just now.
Also, some of the time, when F-droid updates an app, the update just goes through. But other times I get a dialogue asking “do you want to update this app?”. It seems random. Any idea?
Phone is a Moto G5 Stylus 2023 and it recently got a security update from Motorola, but I think I’ve done some F-droid updates since then. However, this may be related.
The other possibility is that something might have happened to F-droid’s code signing credentials, e.g. someone messed with them? That thought is basically why I’m asking here.
You have to grant permission to update each app one single time and then after that it will no longer ask you to manually update that app anymore as it will just be able to do it. For apps that are very commonly updated you will see this once and then not again. Some apps are rarely updated and when everything else has been updated automatically you’ll still get this one app that has not been and needs permission.
