Please share:


Debut: Widget-only app v9.40beta → Play
► Widget app now targets Android OREO (Wear + Widget phone app update coming soon)
► Fixed folder icon creation on Android OREO and later
► Old folder icon was not correctly removed / disabled after you import the cloud into a different folder
► Updated contact scan to use JobScheduler on Android OREO and later

MANDATORY NOTIFICATIONS: ANDROID ☹️RE☹️
► Shown while editing/measuring widgets (it can be hidden)
► Shown when App-Cloud “Auto-populate” is enabled to capture app installs
► Explanation alert box and optional instructional video on how to minimize / hide mandatory notification
► Use Premium Key app as pre-Oreo helper app to detect app installs
► Offer to install free “Summary” pre-Oreo helper app to detect app installs – for those who updated via in-app-purchases
► Translations for new messages

VIDEO
Here is the video I made on how to hide the notification:

It is not nice. Especially the “app is using battery” part. I am prepared for another wave of negativity from existing users. It’s not me. It’s G☹️☹️GLE…

Anyway, I think I came up with a pretty good workaround: moving the app install detection parts into external apps which I will not update to Oreo:
► Users of the Premium Key app are in luck
► Those who updated via in-app-purchase will have to install the “Summary plugin”
