Copay Android builds

[Forage]

Since some time now Copay is no longer available in the Google app store, nor are apk files being provided.

The last apk is available with a cryptic name for version 5.4.0, with missing out on releases before and after that.
The website has been taken down at the same time.

What is going on? Have you lost interest?
Would it be possible to provide builds again?

Hello @Forage
Thank you for reaching out to us.

The latest uploaded apk file is version 5.7.1 that can be found here.

We are going to be uploading not all releases but the major ones.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
Kind regards.

Thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately it is not a Copay build that is available of version 5.7.1 but a Bitpay build.

Thank you for reaching out to us.

You are right, we apologize for the mistake. We should be uploading a Copay build on next releases.
Please try with the BitPay app in the meantime.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
Kind regards.

The latest two releases provide Android builds again, but with the ambiguous name android-release-signed-aligned.apk. These turn out to be Bitpay builds however.

Will there be Copay builds made available again in the near future?

Hello @Forage
Thank you for reaching out to us.

Yes, there will be Copay builds, we are uploading build only when major updates happen. Please stay tuned for the next release.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
Kind regards.

Should this bug be reopened again or should I create a new one for the same subject?

Hello @Forage

No, we understand the inquiry has been answered.
If it was not clear:

• In regards to the app name, that was answered here.
• About the availability of Copay versions, it will simply not be released as frequently as BitPay app, only when major changes are done, that will stay the same, the latest releases can be found here

Kind regards.

Hello @BGalliotti

The last link you provide about Copay builds does not work. Where can we find the Android builds?

You'd need to go back to version 8.0.5 in the releases list. For some reason an update to major versions 9, 10 and 11 don't qualify as "major changes ... done".

But I can't access the releases pages at all, that link is dead.

Who are the maintainers of these builds? Can't they produce a recent one?
