        Hello,

        I am gonna to install Ubuntu Touch, with Waydroid for apps that are not available on Ubuntu Touch yet
        It seems that the webpage on waydroid on UT is not up to date (it refers to Amazon play store, that is no longer maintained)

        I would like to ask :

        1. Waydroid offers to be signed, and then to use Google Play Store/services
          But I am mainly interested in UT for privacy. If I use Google Services on waydroid, does it access to my data like a ordinary Android ?

        2. If I don't use Play Store, does "waydroid upgrade" update the apps ?

        Thank you for your answers

        Best

        Thomas

          This may not be the answer you were hoping for, but it's certainly simpler. By installing Aurora Store, you can use Google Play without needing to log in and download apps.

            "waydroid upgrade" only upgrades Waydroid (when a new version is available), not the apps installed in Waydroid, no matter if you have Play Store or not.
