"textContent": "This is controlled by package versionCode\n\nF-Droid’s logic is like this:\n\n * device advertises support for some arches\n * F-Droid installs the highest versionCode package that is compatible\n\n\n\nEg. You can have 3 packages\n\n * universal armv7+v8+x86+x86_64 versionCode 1\n * armv7 versionCode 2\n * armv8 versionCode 3\n\n\n\nIf device advertises armv7 it gets 2\n\nIf device advertises armv7&armv8 it gets 3\n\nIf device advertises armv8 it gets 3\n\nIf device has x86 or x86_64 or both, it gets 1\n\nSo having universal too is not an issue, as we guide devs to set a proper versionCode",
