Didn't come up in a search of the fdroid app
I had to go in Settings > Include Anti-Features and enable Tethered Network Services for it to show up.
Tried that and it didnt work. What does that feature mean btw? Is it in fact something to avoid?
It's just that the app relies on an external server to retrieve the data, as you likely won't need or want to download the entire map dataset inside your phone every time the data is updated.
Update your repository?
As in add more repositories? I'm not sure what this means, sorry
As far as my understanding:
Repositories are like lists of available programs. F-droid will update periodically, but will not catch a fresh update or new program until the repo is updated.
I use Droidify and its there
