Feature description

Accrescent is an Android app store focused on security, privacy, and usability. Would love to see PCAPdroid available in Accrescent.

Hello, that store does not seem very popular. What about F-Droid? https://f-droid.org/it/packages/com.emanuelef.remote_capture/

Thank you for reply :)

You are correct. Most users are GrapheneOS users, because the app store is available for them. It has some features that f-droid does not have.

Security: Signed repository metadata App signing key pinning Name verification

Privacy: No remote APK signing No accounts

Thanks for the links. I've evaluated this and currently I don't think it's worth to maintain a submission in this additional store, as I can see that development goes on slowly and there not many apps in the store. If things change, in the future I will evaluate this again

This is incredibly niche. I don't believe that this is worth the effort, when F-Droid exists.
