| * Installation/upgrading directions: | |
| - Delete any prior version of Overbite Android (you do not need to | |
| delete bookmarks or any gopher shortcuts, however) as the | |
| signing key changed between 0.2.5 and 0.2.6. If you don't do | |
| this, installation may fail without obvious explanation. | |
| - Enable sideloading on your device. Although this application is | |
| signed, it is not offered through F-Droid or the Google Play | |
| Store. Sideloading is supported on most unlocked devices and all | |
| Google Nexus and Pixel devices. | |
| - Overbite Android is supplied as an APK. Either directly | |
| download the APK to your device with the browser or to your | |
| device's memory card. Keep the extension as .apk. | |
| - Depending on your configuration, you may simply be able to | |
| touch and install the APK directly. You can also use a tool | |
| such as OI File Manager, AppsInstaller or Astro File Manager | |
| to do this installation step. | |
| - Start Overbite Android by touching the icon in your | |
| applications tab. You can also drag it to your home screen. | |
| - Enjoy Gopherspace. Please report your experiences to | |
| ``[email protected]'', including your perception of the | |
| application's speed, how well it interacts, and your device | |
| and Android version. | |
| * New and Fixed | |
| * Fixes for visual issues in dark mode and on Android 12. | |
| * Fixes for possible crash bugs. | |
| * To do | |

| of version 0.3. You will need to have a file manager that | |
| supports PICK_FILE, such as Astro. | |
| * Add localizations. | |
| * Internal bookmark support. This will be in a future version. | |
| For now, you can create shortcuts on the Home screen as basic | |
| bookmarks. | |
