Well, the issue will be developers of other apps would force us to re-google since any build of the app would be useless unless installed from the play store...

MicroG devs are working on fakeing play integrity api since 2023: https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/issues/2050

it seems that play integrity continue to change internally day to day... He is waiting that google stabilize it. Then will be a pull request.

Are they? Other comments in different PRs seem to indicate they have no intention of trying to subvert play integrity. Is there something more recent than this that indicates they're trying?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Yeah, maybe "working on" was too generous, "aware of the issue and some preliminary work was already done" would have been more correct

Here is some recent discussion if it's feasible at all: https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/pull/2077

ReVanced patching will become more common

For every single app where the developer tries this?

Yeah right. That's unsustainable.

They'll also just increase ways for the integrity to verify it hasn't been patched. This announcement already says they're checking the app's binary for tampering.
