Please support apks

Please support apks.

New apps for android is build as apks, not apk. For example

https://github.com/fttx/barcode-to-pc-app/releases/tag/v4.5.0

So please support it.

Thank you.

Have you tried adding this app to Obtainium? I just added it and Obtainium installed it normally, no need to worry about apk or apks at all.

Update: but, to clearly, the app can't open.

@ngocanhtve You probably have "fallback to older releases" enabled, So it's ignoring the latest release which doesn't have an APK, and using the previous one.

You're right. I looked again and it only installed version 4.4.2 instead of the latest 4.5 with apks.

Yes, it fall back to the previous one. The APKS doesn't install on my GOS, if I download it in browser. It's a zipped folder named splits with a bunch of APK and a "toc.bp". I think it's a form of "split-apk" - I can install the app with https://github.com/Aefyr/SAI.
