"Install All/Update all" button

Open balporig opened this issue 1 year ago • 9 comments

Add "Install All/Update all" button on the Updates tab that can download and install all available updates. On non root devices it can show install prompts for each app

That would be awesome! Also on Android 12 there is the feature where app can be installed silent (this install method is already implemented, but still buggy).

@BluePixel4k, is silent installation relevant?

@BEEDELLROKEJULIANLOCKHART Yes of course! 😃 Thereby you don't have to manually allow every update even without root.

For silent non-root installation for Android 11 and below can be implemented with RikkaApps/Shizuku: Using system APIs directly with adb/root privileges from normal apps through a Java process started with app_process., see #14

What about an update all button for non root devices (something like the neo store or aurora droid)

Yes it is planned.

Instead of a dedicated "Update all" button, checkboxes beside each entry would be more versatile, with a dedicated "Check all" box atop them. After all, this problem has been remediated many times, and what I describe is the best system known. It would allow me to update many applications easily, but not necessarily all unless I want that, because occasionally I want to update merely 15 of 20, for instance, because I am using the last 5.

Good thinking.

+1 also, it would be great if you didn't have to click install in the popup for each update

Sorry this will be done in next update for sure

@Iamlooker, did you consider my implementation of it? I believe that it is probably able to support future functionality better than solely a button.

Yes I have that in mind and that is currently the plan 😃

Another way you could do it is have an update all button but then opt out of updates for some apps, the same way it works in aurora store.

This would work out better for most people who want to keep all apps up to date except for a few critical ones which require more careful consideration before updating.

Either way it gets implemented, this will be awesome to have :)
