Unable to install on e/OS (lemmy.world)

e/OS is a privacy focused android version that still allows users to install apps from the Play Store by spoofing user data. It uses it's own store called App Lounge, and it works fine for most apps. For some reason, Boost for Lemmy doesn't install when I click install, like all other apps, instead it opens the Play Store website inside a webview. Installing from the website doesn't work for me. I was wondering if the developer provides the APK somewhere? I only found some sketchy links so far.

Does apkmirror not still have it? They used to

Oops, must have overlooked it. Thanks!

I'm sorry I won't be very helpful but I'm using Boost with e/OS 2.8 and installed it via App Lounge and I didn't have any issue. I don't know what could prevent you to install it but I don't think it is related to e/OS 🫤. Is it the only app you're having troubles with?

There was another app, but that was a closed beta and I just couldn't find it until I searched for the full package name, not just the display name. So yeah, boost is th e only app I'm having issues with so far. Which really surprises me, too.
