Apks are cryptographically signed by their developer inorder to assure integrity. Thus updating an apk means downloading an entire new one. Stupid fucks.

Android compiles upon installation for your device with the new ART which replaced the Dalvik VM.

So it needs to recompile every time a core change is made.

this is false. You can unpack, edit and resign an APK without voiding it.

>>57440841
Youll be able to update the original app with a patched apk only if its signed by the same developers key. Stupid fucks.

How to stop update from nagging me? Seriously nagware

You can literally encrypt the delta update server-side, decrypt it locally and then apply it.
