The Kotlin Compose rewrite is long overdue. The old app looked like a 2012 Material Design experiment that never got the memo. Installing approval before downloading is a genuinely smart move though, and concurrent download queues finally fix the most annoying part of the old client. Anyone testing this on Android 14 with scoped storage: are app installs holding up or still throwing permission warnings mid-download?
