| svip | How much can I trust Android apps through the Aptiode Store that is standard in the Jolla Marked? | 21:26 |
|---|---|---|
| svip | I just noticed an app is listed under the wrong publisher. | 21:27 |
| mal | which app? | 21:28 |
| svip | This one: https://mobilepay.en.aptoide.com/app | 21:28 |
| svip | Cal - Israel Credit Card Ltd. seems to be a real company, but they have nothing to do with this app. | 21:30 |
| svip | This is the real app in Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.danskebank.mobilepay&hl=en_US&gl=US | 21:30 |
| svip | That being said, I have used it from the Aptoide store in the past, and have had no issues. | 21:33 |
| svip | But it is just curious to me why the publisher seems to be so random. | 21:33 |
| mal | a bit strange indeed | 21:34 |
| svip | It seems to be uploaded by https://en.aptoide.com/store/aptoide-web | 21:34 |
| svip | Which strikes me as the main account moving things from Google Play to Aptoide. | 21:35 |
| svip | I updated it, then I had trouble getting it to work, then I checked the store again, and I was nervous that it was a fake, and the data I had typed in was now lost. But it seems unlikely, and that it is just a strange mistake. | 21:36 |
| mal | yeah, which device are you using? | 21:43 |
| svip | Xperia 2, I believe it is called. | 21:43 |
| svip | I got that special version of Sailfish OS for that phone. | 21:44 |
| mal | hmm, what device is that | 21:44 |
| svip | Ah, Sony Xperia XA2 - Dual SIM. | 21:45 |
| mal | oh, that one | 21:45 |
| mal | how did the app fail? | 21:45 |
| svip | Well, I had to scan documents because I have a hidden address, and it just kept giving me errors when trying to scan my passport, so I gave up. | 21:46 |
| svip | So it's wrong to say it failed, it was more misbehaving. | 21:46 |
| svip | But it would not be the first time I have had trouble with Android apps accessing the camera. | 21:46 |
| svip | Though, the camera did seem to work, it just said "technical issue" at some point during the scanning, and asked me to try again. | 21:47 |
| mal | ah, ok, maybe I can check that or ask someone else to check it | 21:47 |
| svip | Well, it did succeed once, but then it logged me out. | 21:47 |
| svip | And that's when I gave up. | 21:47 |
| svip | It's a rare case of the app, most people don't have hidden addresses, so will not need to go through this process. | 21:50 |
| svip | My paranoia worries whether pictures of my passport has now ended up in the hands of some unbecoming people. | 21:50 |
| svip | But I think that is unlikely. | 21:50 |
