Sharing a small tip I discovered recently: Android 12 introduced the ability for third party apps to do background updates of apps they installed (or last updated). This should be usable by F-Droid, but is not yet to update itself(!) because it targets an older Android version (targetSdk 25).
F-Droid Basic (by F-Droid developers) removes some features, but targets Android 14 instead (targetSdk 34): https://f-droid.org/packages/org.fdroid.basic/ https://f-droid.org/packages/org.fdroid.basic/ ; my understanding is that it should be merged at some point, but isn't yet.
Note that targetSdk is different from minSdk: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#target https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk...
