There currently isn't a way to share an app with multiple users. However, you can have a shared account or setup CI to automatically publish changes (for example, see my blog post).

@UltrasonicNoise I went ahead and removed the clicks from prang.ultrasonicmadness. Let me know if you need any more help!

Hello all! I just wanted to inform everyone that I am going to take down the OpenStore for maintenance on Sunday, May 28th around 23:30 UTC. I'll be upgrading the OS and using a new Ansible playbook for setup. It'll be switching to a new server, so if things go horribly wrong I can just switch dns back to the old server. I don't expect it to take very long, but Murphy's law could apply here .

Another year just ended and continuing last year's trend here are some fun stats from the OpenStore. Ubuntu Touch is still alive and growing!

@thebird if someone makes a PR for the docs repo I'm sure that could get added.

@domubpkm webapps won't show in the new/update app list on the front page of the OpenStore app. But you can still find it if you browse or search for the app.

@cj_c here are some downloads for the latest versions of apps:

OpenStore v3.3.1

• armhf @ 6,064 downloads
• arm64 @ 5,593 downloads
• amd64 @ 72 downloads
• 11,729 downloads total

OpenStore v3.3.0

• armhf @ 8,307 downloads
• arm64 @ 7,465 downloads
• amd64 @ 65 downloads
• 15,837 downloads total

UT Tweak Tool v0.6.2

• armhf @ 6,077 downloads
• arm64 @ 7,899 downloads
• amd64 @ 97 downloads
• 14,073 downloads total

uNav v3.16

• all @ 7,534 downloads

@nero355 no, the OpenStore isn't tracking any of that data. However the push notification server might be able to give a better idea about that. Maybe @Flohack can post some.

Just for fun and since it's the end of the year, I pulled some stats from the OpenStore. Enjoy and happy New Year!

Hi @dremonon , it sounds like you got the app uploaded & published successfully, congrats! To answer your question, the .click file is the packaging format (similar to an apk or a deb) and you are correct that the .click file is what you need to upload for your app to be on the OpenStore.

@007fred50 I'm fairly certain it's not an issue with the OpenStore. Can you send me the click you are attempting to upload? As an admin I can see about uploading it on your behalf.

@007fred50 It looks like the name of your app is LockAppStore.007fred50 (from this: https://github.com/007fred50/lockAppStore/blob/main/manifest.json.in#L2 ) and the app you are trying to upload to on the OpenStore is just lockappstore. You'll either need to change the name of the app in your manifest.json or create a new entry on the OpenStore under the correct name.

You can fix this on the server side by running: certbot renew --force-renewal --preferred-chain "ISRG Root X1" (ref). This is what I did to fix the OpenStore app being broken.

Otherwise I hear you can blacklist the certificate. Or just wait for the fix for Ubuntu touch to land in an OTA.

Well, I didn't do anything, but I'm glad it's working for you again

@domubpkm & @kugiigi can you provide more details? I'm not sure exactly what the issue is here.

@galestrike I too am in the US on AT&T. I don't have any advice for you, but I'm very invested in a solution for this. There is a bounty thread if you do find a solution to this. Good luck!

I should mention that I'm using AT&T and I will happily do testing!

I too want this and will put up $20. Thanks in advance!

@Lakotaubp Thanks for that support address, I've sent an email about it.

@Lakotaubp thank you so much!
