Note: This issue is for reminder purposes only. I don't think it's ethical to put an already existing app in an app store under a different name without making any changes, so I won't make such a request until I make changes at a different point and break away from the original Tubular (at least until we merge the BraveNewpipe fork? Maybe?). Until then, people can update it manually via GitHub or Obtainium

Hmm, but does an abandoned non functional app count as "existing" in this case?

[asandikci]

It was not abandoned when I wrote this lines, maybe we can reconsider to publish it earlier. But app logo and name texts should be changed before it at least

@IzzySoft are you accepting duplicate projects if previous one has been abandoned (I mean Tubular) I know I should change icon / app name but are there any other thing that I should make/know to listed on your repo? I want to apply with extended version if you accept 😊

and is 6 months enough to say the app has been abandoned?

You use your own packageName there: org.maintainteam.lastpipebender.extended – so I don't see any collision. It's an extended version (the name suggests), so it's no duplicate either. Why not then? Things to be done for that:

• graphics need to be updated (icon is from Tubular, featureGraphic explicitly states Tubular, screenshots I didn't check)
• short/fulldesc I didn't review. Please make sure to have them up-to-date
• library scanner reports ACRA. It's hopefully opt-in? Else it would mean the Tracking anti-feature.
• permissions: here we'd need an explanation on at least android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW and android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE (rather WRITE, as READ was added implicitly), for transparency.

All else seems fine so far. So if you give me a ping when it's ready, I take another look – and we see to get it rolling!

It is not I guess :d
Tubular also released latest version. It would be meaningful to delay this because even extended version almost same to Tubular

@asandikci would you consider adding the regular version of Last PipeBender to your repo, too?
