Issues getting apk into Obtainium

orangebuck

Currently setting up a Pixel 8 + GOS. I've installed via apk Proton Drive, Ente & Standard Notes, however I am unable to add their respective apk links to Obtainium.

I was able to do this successfully for Proton Mail and Proton VPN.

Also, is it possible to install Brave browser the same way?

Any ideas?

Hi, try adding them using the below instructions.

Proton Drive

Simply adding this link should work - https://proton.me/drive/download

Ente

(I assume you mean the photo app) https://github.com/ente-io/ente/releases
Make sure to add the word 'photos' in the section that says "Filter Release Titles by Regular Expression" when adding the app the first time. <-- This is important because it seems adding 'photos' after adding the app to Obtainium causes a conflict between package and app IDs.

Standard Notes

https://github.com/standardnotes/app/releases
Make sure to enable "Include prereleases". Standard Notes release all their versions as prereleases currently so Obtainium won't add it unless you include them.

Also:

Brave

https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/releases/
Make sure to add 'arm64Universal' (the U has to be capitalised for it to work) in the "Filter APKs by Regular Expression" section, which should give you the correct APK.

Edit: You will also need to add 'Release' to the "Filter Release Titles by Regular Expression" section, otherwise it will pick up the Beta version. ~~dammit brave~~

Excellent instructions, thank you!

Everything worked except Proton Drive. I have version 2.5.0 installed, and following your instructions, Obtainium is suggestion 357712508 is the latest version... Any ideas?

Unfortunately I don't have an answer to give you, as none of the apps I have in Obtainium are installed using a HTML link like Proton Drive. I can't seem to find a way to get Obtainium to detect the proper version ID, so I can only suggest to uninstall and reinstall through Obtainium.
