OSS Tracker RE

A lightweight Android app that monitors GitHub, GitLab, and F‑Droid repositories for the latest APK releases, downloads them in the background, and lets you install them with a single tap. No browser, no file manager — everything happens right inside the app.

This project started as a fork of jroddev/android-oss-release-tracker and has since been heavily re‑designed and extended.

✨ Features 🎨 Liquid glass design A modern frosted‑glass aesthetic with smooth blur, transparency, and refined depth gives the whole interface a clean, premium feel.

🎨 Custom background gradients Choose from 16 pastel gradient palettes in Settings to personalize the app's background. The palette is saved automatically and applies instantly.

📦 Fast download engine APKs are fetched by a dedicated foreground service. Real‑time progress is displayed (file name, percentage, and a progress bar). You can pause, resume, or cancel downloads whenever you want.

⚡ One‑tap install — or download only When a download completes, a "Tap to install" button appears inside the repository card. Prefer to install manually? Switch to Download Only mode in Settings — APKs land straight in your device's Downloads folder.

🔑 Bring your own token GitHub limits anonymous API requests to 60 per hour. Go to Settings → API Configuration, paste your Personal Access Token, and the limit jumps to 5,000/hour. The token is stored only on your device and never leaves it.

🔔 Auto update check The app periodically checks all tracked repositories for new stable releases and notifies you when one is found. Enabled by default (every 24 hours), with a simple on/off toggle in Settings.

↩️ Pull‑to‑refresh Pull down on the Apps screen to refresh all tracked repositories at once. A status indicator shows when the check is in progress.

🏷️ Stable & Pre‑release separated Each repository shows its latest stable and pre‑release versions in separate, collapsible cards, complete with release dates. Toggle pre‑release tracking on or off in Settings.

🔍 Smart filtering Instantly search through your tracked repositories from the Apps screen. A clear button resets the filter in one tap.

🌓 Theme support Choose between Light, Dark, or System theme via a segmented control. Your preference is saved automatically.

📂 Import / Export Back up or migrate your list of tracked repositories as a plain text file. One tap to export, one tap to import a text file with one repository URL per line.

📋 Download history The History tab records every download — successful or failed — with version numbers, release types (Stable / Pre‑release), detailed error reasons, and source platform badges (GitHub / GitLab / F‑Droid). Note: The History tab is hidden by default. Enable it in Settings → Developer Options to see your download records.

🛠️ Developer Options Advanced settings (such as hiding the New or History tabs from the bottom bar, or enabling the History tab itself) are tucked away in a collapsible Developer Options section at the bottom of the Settings screen.

🔄 Reset function One button erases all application data, restarts the app, and returns it to a factory‑fresh state.
