      @opolork I assume you have already used the installer. Haven't you? If so, the installation is easy. I did it this morning with it.

        I'll wait a little longer for the update first. Maybe I'll try the installer later on if nothing comes in.

        How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

          I just checked for updates again. It said 'downloading version 18'. It installed and rebooted. I'm now on OTA-20. 🙂

            Thanks for the reminder for something I wanted to ask :

            Why does it say version 18 while it's OTA 20 ?!

            I would expect it to say Version 20 or simply OTA 20 🙂

            My phones :

            • BQ Aquaris E5 HD Ubuntu Phone Edition - Ubuntu Touch 16.04 LTS
            • ZUK Z2 Pro - ZUI Android 8.x
            • Xiaomi Mi 9T - Jolla SailFish 3.4.x Community Build

            P.S. : I am NOT a developer! ;)

              @nero355 I too was expecting v20. 🙂

                I have just updated to OTA-20 and confirm it is listed as Version 18 on the System Settings>Update page, but on the System Settings>About page it is listed as OTA-20.

                The version numbering has always been a puzzle to me. As far as I can tell versions numbered in tens are Stable, versions numbered in hundreds are RC, and versions numbered thousands are Development.

                  Thanks for that info. :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

                    Maybe because it's the 18th update in stable for this particular device ?

                        I just noticed an update in Open Store. The same update shows in System Settings -> Updates. I updated the app via System Settings and it updated fine and shows in the System Settings history.
