&gt; I&#x27;m trying to remember how Android works, but I seem to recall that you need to sign the packages differently on Play and Fdroid. So you literally can&#x27;t redistribute the same Play package with Fdroid (someone correct me if I&#x27;m wrong). This means rebuilding... and hence rebranding.<p>You can distribute the same build on F-Droid and Play, and also signed with your own key, if you use proper reproducible builds<p>(And not the TextSecure variant of &quot;let’s download this huge image and let it compile the app&quot;, because that opens you to evil compiler issues).
