Afternoon all,

Sync for Lemmy (Android) is now available for pre-registration on Google Play.

I’m currently working with 100 internal testers to add the final parts / resolve any issues and should be ready to go live within the next week.

I’ll be emailing everyone that signed up with the previous form today too.

Cheers,

Lj

Will it run without Google Play Services like Reddit Sync Pro did prior to v22?

Edit: answering my own question. Yes it runs on degoogled devices, at least this one with microg.

Yes, but there are alternative clients like Aurora which allow you to download your apps that you’ve purchased on Google Play. It essentially scrapes the Google Play website to get the apk that you have access to after purchasing.

It’s a different issue than requiring Google Play Services on the device. I think you implemented some new license checking in v22 which broke the app on degoogled devices (just a guess). V19 worked great.
