New app: Torrent Player
Adds Torrent Player (webtor.app) 2.0.0 (23), an Android torrent downloader with streaming and completed-file playback through external media players. Supports arm64-v8a.
Source and review follow-up
The recipe now pins 92b1a9914c17d0fb03cd6577ce889faf66cc2cd9, a metadata/documentation-only descendant of the released v2.0.0 source 5cfbdc1e8a1d9672c969ffbf4a215217d99477a0. All Android/Go application source, dependencies and build inputs are unchanged. The release tag and GitHub reference APK remain unchanged.
- Expanded Fastlane description to disclose automatic tracker-list downloads from GitHub/ngosang, daily refresh and failure retries, up to 24 supplemental public trackers for non-private torrents, and WebRTC/STUN servers at Google, Twilio and Cloudflare. Explains IP exposure and the absence of opt-out controls in 2.0.0. Private torrents are excluded from supplemental trackers.
- Clarified the no-tracking claim as no advertising trackers, analytics or telemetry.
- Added
fastlane/metadata/android/en-US/changelogs/23.txtfor 2.0.0. - Updated this description from 1.4.5 to 2.0.0.
- Optional network controls and the stale 1.4.5 HTTP/handshake identification are deferred to a future application release. This metadata update does not change runtime behavior.
- Documented the future-release gate: build in the matching F-Droid environment, sign with the existing release key, scan and reproduce the signed candidate before publication. Do not replace already distributed release assets to repair comparison failures.
