Research direction

Start by reading the Android app's update and release setup; the issue does not name any files, tests, or existing update mechanism. Determine how the app should discover and install updates, then define and implement the expected in-app update flow. Done means users can check for and install an update from within the app.

Description

enhancement

Hello, thank you for creating this useful application, which provides access to Firefox servers and an uncensored internet.
I suggest adding a feature that allows the application to automatically check for and install updates from within the app itself.
