I’m not really sure what the point of this video is, but I guess just be generous. Be kind to people, because you never know how much they might need it, or how far it’ll go.

Goals

1. System Image API 26 (revision 4)
2. Google Play Store 11

Non goals:

Supporting older items. sadly this means that email/password login is not currently possible. Up to Google Services Framework 4.4 (2013), the login is protected with TLS fingerprinting, which is difficult but possible to bypass. Since Google Services Framework 5 (2014), Google uses bot-guard via JavaScript to protect the login. I do not know how to reverse that, and I did not find any implementations online. A workaround would be to use WebView, which I am considering, but making it work cross platform is difficult.
