[ROOT][4.0+] AppDowngrader | downgrade your apps easily

[pyler]

Since I realized you *can* downgrade your apps (install lower version over actual (higher) version of app) using android feature "pm install -r -d file.apk" yesterday, I got time and wrote small and simple app which does everything for you. Just pick APK and click on Install APK. That's it!

Screenshot:

App is now in Google Play Store!

Have you ever felt that after an update your app or games start to have errors/ malfunctioning?

I am gonna try to run Themer on ICS now. I hope that it should work now.

EDIT: I tried it on my Magicon Mpad 7, It said Install successful but I can't find it on my App Drawer?

 

[pyler]

did you read OP? Looks like you didn't. Yes, app shown "successfully installated" because if you use this app how you should, it works. And I don't except that users will do crazy experiments

With or without this app you can't install app which requires 4.1 on device with 4.0.

GREAT IDEA!!

Didn't work with the Google keyboard for me though

So here is a thought, is there a repository for older versions of the free android apps anywhere? That would be a good coupling for an app like this!

Is Google play suggesting to upgrade your downgraded app or it doesn't realize that app was downgraded?

Google Play will suggest upgrading. You essentially just installed an older version of the app in all terms.
You could achieve similar function by backing up your data, deleting the app, re-installing an older version, restoring your data. Obviously it would be longer, though.

Thanks! Very useful to see a easy way to downgrade apps like Minecraft PE and whatever,like Twitter. Very very very grateful.

Best app since "app installer" was created.

Seams somebody made a paid app out of your free app.
