Remove huawei build
jarnedemeulemeester opened this issue · comments
We will no longer publish Findroid on the Huawei AppGallery store.
The reasons are:
- User base is very small.
I don't have exact numbers for active users but the app has less then 200 downloads over the span of 2 years. - The next version of HarmonyOS will drop support for Android apps.
- People can continue to install Findroid using other methods like Fdroid (soon) or directly downloading the APK from GitHub.
- Less work making a build, writing release notes, publishing to the store.
- No longer need for the specific huawei flavor of Findroid.
This was necessary because Huawei disallows the use of the Android robot in the app logo. So a different logo was created. Which meant a separate flavor in the codebase.
Required steps:
- Delete the app from Huewei AppGallery
- Remove badge from README
- Remove huawei flavor
Request for deletion has been sent to Huawei
Huawei flavor has been removed from the codebase
