So I got many updates for my installed apps eventhough they have no new updates in playstore.

Are these updates legit ? What are they ?
[Android Apps and Games] rumboalla:
If you are referring to system app updates, be careful, since they are usually vendor and android version specific.

You see these updates because the package name (com.android.phone and similar) is the same across all vendors. I may add a warning for these updates somewhere.

Newest version is running fine.

How can I exclude updates that I don't want to see?

Long press on the app you want to ignore. Added that to the FAQ (https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/app-apkupdater-t3444517/post68306145).
[Android Apps and Games] chitose_ndy:
Im sorry, I meant I was referring to 3rd party apps like tumblr, instagram, etc.

But what you said is also a great information. Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] rumboalla:
In this case then, the updates may be beta versions. There is an option to try to exclude those but it's not perfect.
[Android Apps and Games] j1gga84:
I don't mean excluding an app in general, I only mean excluding an update. If there is a new update it should be displayed again. I don't know if you know what I mean or if this is even possible.

[Android Apps and Games] hajkan:
Would not it be more sensible to list only one version (the latest version) of an app if the user has selected 2 repositories instead of double listing them in the update tab? I mean I can see why someone might want that as well but it just makes the list very long and convoluted. Maybe the repositories can be lsited separately.

Changelog 1.3.10

Check for connection before updating.

Reschedule update if no connection.

Added option to select the number of threads used for updating.

Added Wi-Fi only update option.

I do not need an update software, I have GooglePlay market, but what I need most is a software that can be integrated into the system, I do not like them installed in the data space, I think you can from this aspect to optimize your Software, if you can directly update the integration to the system, maybe I will give you 5 stars！
[Android Apps and Games] j1gga84:
I did not get the sense of your "complaint".

Use titanium backup and convert the app to a system app, end of the story.

And yes, we all have the play store but this app is helpful for those who will not use Google apps.

Also the play store does not show all updates or much later than on sites like apkmirror.com and so on.

Bugs present, shows errors every time, please fix.

Hi,

Whenever I check for updates,

1. Always there are 10 or 11 errors, I only check updates for 18 apps from apkmirror.

2. Sometimes it shows 5 updates, sometimes shows 3 updates, every time I refresh it shows different.

3. If the updates tab shows 5 updates, there are only 2 or 3 visible, others are just blank spaces.

4. It doesn't​ check variant of APK. I have arm CPU, the update is for ×86 CPU, then also it shows that update for my device.

5. All the update tiles are gone whenever I restart the app, I have to check for updates every time, can't it cache all the tiles and delete them after recheck.

I have Lenovo A526, running stock rom with Android 4.2.2

Please fix soon.

I'm a newbie in XDA, so please guide if I'm wrong at any point.

Implement an option to can direct download showing ads in app and donate the profit to Apkmirror.

Same as previous quote reply.
[Android Apps and Games] Ultramanoid:
One ( of many different ) reasons why there are people who don't use the Play Store and prefer alternatives like this or F-droid is to avoid running advertising code natively in their devices, which is unsafe and resource consuming, not to mention intrusive privacy-wise if it engages in data mining, as Google usually does.
[Android Apps and Games] Deic:
Yep, but this would be optional.. the default option would be the current one.

Hey guys, how can I install all updates with this app? I check for updates and it finds 15 apps to update but I cannot select them to update..It only have links to apkmirror so I can update manually..I don't want to do it manually for every app.. any help?
[Android Apps and Games] :
That’s the point of APKUpdater.
[Android Apps and Games] CrazyCypher:
The point is just to show you there are updates available but doesn't download them itself?
[Android Apps and Games] :
Pretty much. I’m not sure if it’s possible to update them on demand like on the Play Store but it isn’t a bad idea to ask. [MENTION=7676946]rumboalla[/MENTION]

It runs smooth on Android TV as well, but it does not show up in leanback launcher. Would you care to add Android TV support, including making it show up in leanback launcher + adding a leanback banner? I think the launcher icons (aka banners) are 320x180. In that case I've made a little mockup (attached).

This is useful for keeping my banking app (which is only officailly available in the US) up to date.
[Android Apps and Games] Ev0luti0n_:
Hey... i was wondering exactly about banking apps and the like, because i use a lot of secure/important apps on the phone (paypal,ebay,banking apps...) and i get anxiety thinking something might happen to the phone or even malware. How is this app secure to use? how do you know the apps are legit and not tampered with, if even the google play has malware sometimes?

i would love to get rid of the play store app/services, but i fear for my security.
[Android Apps and Games] Mattwmaster58:
This app can get apk's from the playstore, although indirectly. This app just finds the APKs online and provides you links to download them. You know the apk's from the playstore aren't tampered with because they are straight from the playstore.Yes, the playstore sometimes has malware, but if your device doesn't have bad apps on it then APKUpdater won't provide you with malware links.
[Android Apps and Games] Ev0luti0n_:

1. So, any change on your stance regarding directly downloading the APKs?

2. It would be nice if support for the QooApp repo could be added to it so that way it'll be easier to update Japanese, etc. games.
[Android Apps and Games] rumboalla:
I'm currently working on a way to provide direct downloads from the app. This is a bit of a long term project though, and it's not going to be ready anytime soon.
[Android Apps and Games] oroboros74:
I'd like to make a request: ignore this update.

Sometimes an update shows for an app installed, but not the variant my phone uses. Rather than ignoring an app altogether, I'd like to be able to ignore just that update, maybe long pressing the item in the update list. When there's a further update, then that would show up.

Dunno how possible that is, but definitely would be useful! Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Zero3K:
Also, apk-dl.com should be used as the service to directly download APKs from the Play Store.

EDIT: Please include the ability to hide the download link of certain sources that are shown in the Updates tab.
[Android Apps and Games] lironbainglass:
Man, this app is awesome!!!

I just have a few requests/suggestions. If they are impossible/stupid/already have been requested by someone on this thread (can't bring myself to read 26 thread pages... just...can't ;)) then I'm truly sorry.

1) In "Settings" ----> "General settings" ----> "Theme", can you please make the "Dark Droid" theme more consistent with the other themes (especially the "Blue Meth" and "Orange Juice" themes). That is to say, the status bar should be in dark green, the navigation bar should be in "normal"/intense green, the settings section titles ("General settings", "Filter settings", etc...)/checkboxes/etc... should be in light green, and the background should be in pitch black

2) In addition to APKMirror, APKPure and Uptodown, can you please add the Google Play Store as a source?

3) Not sure if this is even possible, but can we choose the specific update sources we want to use for each installed app? You can make it so that in "Settings" ----> "Update sources", the user will first have to check all the sources (by tapping on their boxes) that he wants APKUpdater to use in order to check for updates. Then, the user will tap on each source ("Updates from APKMirror", "Updates from APKPure", etc...) whose box he just checked to bring up a list of all the installed apps with check boxes next to them. Finally, for each source, the user will check the boxes of all the installed apps for which he wants to check for updates with that specific source. I hope that made some sense (it sounded better in my head :))

4) Again, not sure if this is possible, but it's worth a shot. Suppose I checked more than one source in "Settings" ----> "Update sources" and then I pressed on the Update button. Then, suppose that APKUpdater has found an update to an app in one of the sources. Can you then make it so that this specific app will be ignored by the successive sources during the update searching process. That way, the user will not get duplicate entries under the "Update " category. For example, I have the Chrooma Keyboard app installed from the Google Play Store. It is version 4.2.1-minApi21. APKMirror tells me that there is a new version (4.3) and APKPure tells me that there is a new version (4.3-minApi21). This seems redundant (and also, as it turns out, useless, because versions 4.2.1-minApi21/4.3/ 4.3-minApi21 are all the same).

OK. That's about all I have to say. Thanks for listening and again, you did an overall amazing job with this app.

Keep up the good work!!!
[Android Apps and Games] Bludwurst:

Just use the search function, then. It's right there. Top right corner of the thread in the website version, and a big looking glass right in the toolbar if you use XDA Labs.
[Android Apps and Games] lironbainglass:
Thanks for the reply. I see what you're talking about, but I'm not sure how to use the search function to search the things that I've mentioned in my post (it's kind of lengthy). Besides, I tried typing some stuff into the search box and it sent me to many threads, but not to this specific thread. Maybe I'm doing it wrong. In any case, I'll wait and see what people have to say about the issues I've raised. Thanks bud!
[Android Apps and Games] Bludwurst:
The search-in-the-thread box should be one near the thread body (upper right corner of the first post in a page or something if memory doesn't fail me).The search on the upper part of the page (i.e. where your username appears while logged in) is for the whole forums.

XDA Labs has, again, the looking glass icon in the toolbar (besides the subscription star).

Use brief sentences or keywords. I.e. "Dark Droid" or "Dark Theme" to see if anybody else had a suggestion like yours. Or "Play Store source" or something.

It's something to keep in mind, as searching threads before posting is just good practice.

Your suggestions are pretty cool, by the way. The per-app-source one (if I didn't misunderstand it!) was something I had thought to suggest (but kept forgetting, d'oh).

Also, apologies if my first reply came across as rude (I've been grumpy lately).
[Android Apps and Games] lironbainglass:
OOOHHHHHHH!!! Now, I see the search box you were talking about. No wonder I missed it. That thing is almost completely invisible (they should make the frame of that search box, like, bold black or something). Anyways, I'll use it from now on before posting. Thanks mate.

P.S. You didn't come across as rude at all. Quite helpful actually. Cheers

Great application. I've tried many of these and this one seems to be one of the best.

Changelog 1.4.8 Beta

APKMirror updater now uses the official API.

Thanks to [MENTION=2373179]Archon810[/MENTION] for the official APKMirror API.

Updater is much more efficient. Uses 1 request for every 100 apps (instead of 1 for every app).

Option to exclude APKS for other architectures.

Option to exclude APKS based on min API level.

Uses version code to compare versions instead of version string.

Note: Next version will add signature verification so you won't get updates for apps with the same pname but different manufacturer.

Google Play updater support.

Uses play-store-api and code from YalpStore.

Uses Google Play with a default account so there is no need to have a Google account.

Checks for updates using your DeviceInfo.

Direct download of APKS from GooglePlay.

Improved version parsing.

Portuguese translation.

Apk is attached to this post.

This is a beta release, so expect bugs, crashes and things not working. All feedback and bug reports will be highly appreciated. Thanks!

This could cause problems, because people will be using same default account connecting from different countries.

Also, a large number of downloads due to many people using your app will cause flag to be raised, maybe.

Updates from Play Store and APKMirror:

• The process is really slower

• Duplicates caused by newer apk file on both sources I guess

• I miss F-Droid since apps installed from F-droid can't be updated from Google Play

• How downloaded apk files are managed? Where are they stored? Are they deleted right after the installation? It could be great to give us more control

• No crash atm - Android 7.1.2

There are no issues with Yalp so if it's the same implementation I see no reason to get troubles.
