Standalone APK #27
Comments
Thanks for the suggestion. I will have a look at this. Is it also possible to install an apk on wearOs in this way? Google is rejecting all my wearOS updates for the moment due to more strict (in my opinion to strict) guidelines/rules. |
According to Google's documentation it looks like wearOS does support APKs: https://developer.android.com/distribute/best-practices/launch/distribute-wear#package-your-app |
Thanks for coming back. I know wearOS does support APKs. My question is more: can you install an apk on wearOS using Obtainium. |
Ah, sorry, I'm not really familiar since I don't own a smartwatch. I did a bit more searching and found this discussion thread: ImranR98/Obtainium#1470 Some of it goes over my head, but this seems to be the upshot:
So it seems the answer is no, at least without breaking wearOS' security by rooting the device. That's a shame, really... |
I implemented a github workflow that creates a release for all the 'flavours' of my app. |
Wow, that was quick! Thanks so much! I searched for "Squore" in Obtainium, found your Github repository as the first result, added it, and installed the APK you recommended. The app continues to work great. |
Implemented |
Love the app (especially the name)! It's easily the best Squash scoring app around. I'd love to be able to install the app without needing to install the Google Play store.
Squore could support that by using Github Releases to distribute the standalone APK users can install without Google Play or Google Play Services.
I use Obtainium to automate updates to Android apps which supports Github Releases as a source. Most of my apps are installed this way.
Thanks!
