Essentially the apps have same package name but different signatures and the app store that installed it should be the only one to recognize and update it.
But Google is likely trying this dark pattern to sway people away from F-Droid or alt stores by making users uninstall these apps and install it from the Google Play Store.
It's been going on for a while and is annoying af.
This is an f-droid problem. If they use the same package name, they need to use the same signature. That has been the case since long before f-droid existed.
They could just build apks with alternate package names and this wouldn't be an issue.
It's no problem, since you don't want 2 stores to update the same app.
Actually, I had it just the other way around. I had an app that had an old, orphaned version on F-Droid and a newer one on Play Store, so I installed the one from the Play store, but F-Droid desperately tried to update it constantly, always failing, always spamming me with messages about it
Remove it from F-Droid (ideally first) to avoid this
It's just cause it has the same package name and only checks the signature on attempt to install not cause Google has some alterior motive
Ulterior
Thx lol my grammar is ass even though it's the only language I speak haha
It's relatively new behaviour so they introduced it recently. And they need to fix it, but ignore it entirely...
Mismatched signatures have been discouraged since day one of Android. A mismatched signature is a sign that some one other than the original publisher built this package, and the user needs to be aware that it might be malicious.
That F-Droid went with this setup with mismatched signatures was always going to make their apks look suspicious.
Even if it's new behavior, there is really no reason to assume that this was done to evoke some dark pattern or other. It just shows that Google will not think about 3rd party stores when they do anything with their services and that is hardly news, is it? Besides: I kinda get it honestly. If they'd take all the stuff out there for android into account before they did anything, nothing would be done at all.
So the question becomes less why that's there, but more what stores like Samsung do to prevent this issue and if F-Droid can adapt the same behavior.
Yeah the worst part of it is that the version on Google Play is actually the older version.
They are shown on the update page for Google's benefits only. This is anti customer.
