Hello Mark, I only wanted to try how it works ... I mean chat here :)
Mark M.
it, um, works like a chat! :-)

Ok, thanks. Your book is very helpful for me. Is it possible to retain all the videos from community theater when I want to install a new version of apk?
Mark M.
it should do that automatically
once installed, any new APKs should be seen by Android as an upgrade
which retains everything on internal storage
and so the existing appinars should still be there
if you uninstall the old app, then install the new one, that will cause you to lose the existing downloads, as they will be deleted when you uninstall the old app
Jan C.
So I do it wrong way :) I always uninstall old apk and install new one
Ok, thank you.
Sorry, I am a little excited that I chat with you. I expected that there will be more people and I will only take a look on the conversation.
Mark M.
some chats are empty, others less so
4:45 PM
Mark M.
on the whole, people only come here if they have a question
Jan C.
Ok, I'll be prepared next time. One more time, I appreciate your work and knowledge.
Mark M.
you are very welcome
I am happy to be useful
4:55 PM
Jan C.

Mark M.
you too!
