0.2.0
Nearly everything Obtainium does, done in a way Tern can stand behind.
- Every per-app option Obtainium has, Shizuku, Dhizuku, root and other installer apps, zip and tar archives, a widget, a Quick Settings tile and launcher shortcuts. Import and export carry every option, in Tern's format or Obtainium's.
- Reads itch.io, Telegram and Neutron Code. Third-party stores (APKPure, Aptoide, APKCombo, APKMirror, Tencent, Huawei AppGallery, Samsung Galaxy Store and vivo) sit behind a setting that starts off, and the app says what they are before you turn it on.
- Every source is asked as Tern. Tern does not read stores that only answer their own app, or sites that offer modified apps.
- Well known apps are held to their developer's certificate even when added from a store or a mirror, and the list says when one is already on your phone.
- Checks and installs each have their own Wi-Fi and charging switches. A copy that held checks back on 0.1.0 still does, and web page apps offer what they offered before.
- Only Tern's own shortcuts can start Update all. A link from a web page asks first and never installs.
- Shared links keep the app's address after the #, so no server sees it.
The full list is in CHANGELOG.md, and PRIVACY.md names every host Tern can talk to.
