Imminent removal from the Google Play Store #1162

Description

@jamie-mh

On the 3rd of September 2024, my Google Play developer account will be deleted by Google and Authenticator Pro will no longer be available on the Google Play store. In line with the new Play Store policy, unless I consent to publicly displaying my home address, I will no longer be able to publish apps.

The alternative is to register as an organisation, which involves renting a PO-box and a dedicated support phone number. Of course, this is unreasonable and unsustainable for a free app.

From September, Authenticator Pro will only be available through the F-Droid repos and from GitHub releases.

This is a heads-up for anyone wondering past this date.
