Apps installed from Obtainium cannot be archived. I really want the used app icon on my home screen so that I don’t forget about them but with the app deleted to save space.

There is an issue tracker https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium/issues/2042 but no developer have answered. Meanwhile is there a work around?

thanks a lot

EDIT: I guess there is not a work around for now. It would be really great for those who sees this post to give https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium/issues/2042 a thumbs up. thanks a lot!

    It’s been a while since I kept up with the latest in Android’s APIs, I’d heard there were some APIs that third party stores could use to be recognized as a store, but I’m not sure what the requirements are for that (such as being a system app rather than a user app, or signed by the ROM’s keys) and if so, whether archiving even supports third party stores.

    I think f-droid and aurora supports this feature, not sure about other stores
