Please **DO NOT UPDATE**, as the app will crash on startup and will not work. + +You can join the Google Play beta to upgrade to 1.17.8 (in testing!!) or manually install the .apk file from https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy-android/releases/tag/v1.17.8: + +- Join beta from Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.heckel.ntfy +- Joined beta from Web: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/io.heckel.ntfy + +My sincere apologies. I forgot that F-Droid automatically picks up tags. It's been a while. I suggest that you use the Backup feature in ntfy (Settings -> Back up to file) to save your current database to a json file, just in case. + +F-Droid release cycles take a while, so this will take a few days to get fixed. I am very sorry, guys. + +--- + ![ntfy](web/public/static/images/ntfy.png) # ntfy.sh | Send push notifications to your phone or desktop via PUT/POST
