Official F-droid Repository
Hello,
It would be nice to have an official F-droid repo for all protonapps.
This way all apps would easily stay up-to-date without using the google playstore (or the aurore store)
Thanx for considering!

Why do they need their own F-Droid repo? They should use the main repo. If their apps don't comply, they should make them comply, not make their own repo.
Maybe as a stopgap until they're ready for the main repo?

It would be nice, but Proton VPN on F-droid doesn't work:
- Get the latest app from Play Store > Enable Split Tunneling > Exclude Android Auto > Android Auto works
- Get the latest app from F-Droid > Enable Split Tunneling > Exclude Android Auto > Android Auto does not work (the connection fails and the Android Auto complains about a VPN being active)If we get Proton apps on F-Droid (which I'd very much like), we also need a way to make sure they work identically.

Some Proton Apps are available through GitHub, but not all of them.
The apps are also available through the official Proton Website, but this way it is hard to keep track of updates.Would be nice to have all the Proton Apps available through one repository. Be it F-Droid or GitHub!

Please do you research on F-Droid, next already given here I saw in the comments is the best option direct download apk use Obtanium for updates. Search on YT Side of Burritos skip all those food channels search for one tech guy who teach all about the how to.

Definitely for this! @secnetsys: How is Google Play "official" in the first place? My version of Android does not come with Google Play, or Google Play Services. And other Android phones, it depends on the vendor what kind of store they preinstall. But a preinstalled store is not necessarily the best one or even a good one.
With F-Droid, Proton could just create their own repository. How would it be bad cyber hygiene to get your Proton apps directly from Proton? Without depending on Google or somebody else.

Definitely against this. Basic cyber hygiene is to never use unofficial stores.

As the APK is available for download from https://proton.me/de/mail/download, you can use Obtainium to download or update directly from there or from https://github.com/ProtonMail/proton-mail-android

While deGoogling, a repository for proton apps for f-droid would increase security while apps update management would be signicant improved

I would love to see all Proton apps at F-Droid. It is so much better than Google Play.
