Important notices
- A new version was released 28 Oktober 2021.
- Version number in your repository looks corrupted: 2021 instead of 2011 used. This prevents direct 'downgrades' to Play version (Error INSTALL_FAILED_VERSION_DOWNGRADE).
Looking forward to a fix for the broken version number and of course the package.
