Request : add GitHub/GitLab updates

[ld892012]

Add possibility to add a GitHub or GitLab link for an app and the app automatically search for new versions for it (Newpipe or Bromite for example)

I nned this option too.

I would love to see that. I had a lot of apps I can just get from github or gitlab. I need to download the manually on my pc and then I sideload them. I hope for a better way to do this automaticly.

Yes, nice request

It'd be great if someone could post a list of apps for this.

This is what you want.

Get Android app updates directly from the source -> Obtainium

You still have to add the apps manually there.
I was thinking about compiling a list and let ApkUpdater automatically check them.

Like this:
ApkUpdater - com.apkupdater - https://github.com/rumboalla/apkupdater/releases
NewPipe - org.schabi.newpipe - https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/releases

Correct, you do have to manually add the apps you want. Add one app at a time by URL or searching the supported sources in-app. Add multiple apps by importing from a URL list, from URLs in a file, GitHub starred repos, or searching supported sources in-app with the ability to multiple select.

Understood. This list is necessary for the GitHub (Self-Update) source in ApkUpdater correct?

Please add a mechanism to support "app update sources", would be something like WinGet Pkg Repository, where users were able to submit as many app update sources as they want.
