Sorry but are you jokeing you have loads of the same type of apps. Close the thred.
Sent from my Pulse Mini using Tapatalk
No I am not jokeing and I know I have some apps of the same kind and that is why I am asking the members which one they thing I should keep and which one I should remove.
Do the brave thing and delete everything. You'll soon realise what you need.
Seriously, I stopped reading the list when I saw, like, 5 news readers. Keep Pulse (or your favorite if it's not pulse), and delete the rest. Delete any news apps, and find the address to its RSS feed. Add those feeds to whatever reader you kept, and you've already eliminated at least 5 redundant apps.
Use the same strategy for everything else. You should be able to tell when two apps are doing the same thing. Just pick your favorite and delete the rest.
Edit: Are you kidding me? 5 or 6 file managers. I would stick with Root Explorer or SU and delete the rest.
I'm gonna leave it at that, because that is way too many apps. Good luck streamlining.
Looks like a list of downloaded warez, and you're just trying to figure out which ones to use.

AAAH! MY EYES THEY BURN! dude litterally. what are you tryin to do go app crazy? CM6.1 has it's own file manager that works great (once the full version comes out i'll be happy) as for all the double apps get rid of em. literally why so many apps. only keep the ones you will use not the ones that will sit and collect fragmentation (hahaha fragmentation kinda like dust is to objects).

I was thinking the same thing when I saw both Root Explorer and SU on the list, not to mention all the other duplicate-function paid apps.
@OP: You should listen to the dude who said to delete everything and start from scratch. And with no wares this time.

Do you have all of these apps installed and running on your phone?
Sounds like you would have some performance issues with these apps, narrow the list.
Do a Google search for the "app" name + "Android review". When I am looking to accomplish a certain task, I Google that on some review site. This will narrow your scope.
I have not, I repeat I have not downloaded these apps from waez or as a package but spent time on appbrain and install each and EVRY app I listed and tried them, th initial liost was 500+ apps, I have narrowed to 200 apps, I just wanted to know which ones people think are the ones worth keeping, the reason I have shortlisted these are because I like the functionality and Ui, however it could happen that some function is available in app x and also in appy but I don't know yet (not played enough), but people on the forum are able to point that out.
Most of the apps listed are highly rated and popular.
I have updated the list by cutting down on some apps.
i will give reason for each app, once i find some time.
That's defo a warez list lol.
You wouldn't have listed all the free version and paid versions if not.
No way you'd have paid for all those apps without trying them.
Made me lol in rl.
Use whichever you feel more comfy using.
Good luck
edit... quick Google search I just found your current list in a wares torrent. In the same order.... Lol

And for every app group (be it warez or not), there is not simply an app that beats them all. It all depends upon your interests and personal preferences, and no one but you can decide what is the app out of a group that fits you most. So please stop asking others to do a work you only can do yourself.

i fully agree with that!
HOARDER!!!!! Wahhh i need moar warez....oh noes i need moar appz naO!!!!!!!
Killkill kill this thread ban the op and take away his poor phone.

I have actually been felt very offended by the fact that members feel that I am using from torrent or warez. As proof here is the list on appbrain:
appbrain .com / user / mohitgarg / need-to-test-install
appbrain .com / user / mohitgarg / faved
And mr leetvtr, eff off, i could find the apps u use in a torrent too.
If I wanted to keep them and be a horder I would not have listed them, the whole purpose was to get input from people about what they feel about an app and if they would discourage the use of a particular app for some particular reason.
I actually did try all of them for less than 22 hours (paid) as I wanted to try and then get a refund, thus didn not have enough time to play with them, but these r the ones i liked in terms of first impression. I actually have tried many more (paid too) apps but did not like them and thus needed your help, what a friendly society, really!
Cut down to one newsreader. For social apps, I'd use Facebook, TweetCaster, GoChat, and Tapatalk.
This combination provides the best coverage of features with the smallest footprint on your phone.
I would also go with Winamp for music, and YXPlayer for movies, since they each offer the best quality and broadest compatibility of their respective media types. I'd also cut down to just Astro and Root Explorer for file managers. While Astro may seem redundant, it's been beneficial to me to have a "pedestrian" file manager, and I also find Astro's zip manager more reliable. Only keep the Google Apps you are actually going to use. I can almost guarantee Google Sky and Goggles will just end up collecting dust in your app tray. The majority of the apps you have listed are pretty specific in purpose. If you aren't using then, and aren't sure if you need them, back then up with AppMonster and uninstall them. You'll always have then to reinstall from your SD if you every want to try then again. That's about all the advice I've got.

Thanks for the constructive criticism, higly appreciated.
I have updated the list, need more suggestions.
[SOLUTIONS ✔ STEP-BY-STEP] "My Installed Apps" missing in Google Play Store [17 MAR]
Are you an app-freak? over hundreds of apps installed and 20 Google Play Store updates per week?
Whether your answer is yes or no, you will have to know this, or it will be too late when you really face the problem.
"One day, I encountered a kernel panic when I was downloading apps, after a reboot all apps in "my apps" are gone. wtf."
"AMFG HELP I NEED TO UPDATE MY APPS I CANNOT LOSE THEM HELL IM FREAKED OUT I DUN WANNA USE AMAZON OR APPBRAIN! I WANT ANDROID MARKET"
"I lost my data/wifi connection when I was updating 30 apps at once, those apps which needs update, gone, but the others remain."
"'Process system not working.' when an app is installing, market force close, all app links gone, omg rescue me."

No problem, you are at the right place.
What we usually do when we encounter it
Yeah you may press on them for real results
No worries, here we go.
This is not a significant or top-prioritised system error.
We don't ask our devs to help us, as this is not their job.
But this **** is really annoying,
and Google ignores us.
We love our apps,
and we really want their update notifications normally.
So we investigate into it and try it ourselves.
We start from the easiest method, to the longest ones.

Code:
I do not guarantee that your Android Market will be fixed.
But according to my experiences and my deep research over the internet,
I think they will mostly fix the “My Apps” section for you! :D
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war
blah blah blah blah blah I will laugh at you.
Your warranty will be void if you use methods with ROOT.
Yes of course there are some without the need of root! ;)
If you see this icon beside the title of the method, that means the method requires ROOT.
If not, then root is not required and you are good to go with any phone!
Make Nandroid backups based on your own decision, determine and strive a balance between the risk of your steps and the patience you have!
WARNING
Eris Market Fix
is working on most Android 2.1 devices.
is working on some Android 2.2 devices.
is working on a few Android 2.3.0 to 2.3.3 devices.
will **** up your phone if you are newer than Android 2.3.3.
As the app developer said, use at your own risk while you are not using on an Eris.
And for me, I do not recommend using this app, on your super new Android versions.

*Recommended Market versions are for reference.
They are categorized based on my experiences and knowledge.
You may also try the methods of the alternate recommended Market versions.
There will be no harm at all as long as I don’t make a warning.
The Basics
The Basics
Android Market Versions
User Temasek is one of my friend which is very advanced in Android and he got a lot of resources.
(Also in his signature,) His MediaFire Share Folder includes:
The newest Android Market apk [in 'Android Market' folder]
The newest newest GAPPS flashable zip (including newest market) [in 'Unofficial GAPPS' folder]
FAQ: Yes you may use the newest "For Android 2.3.X only" as long as you are using any version of Gingerbread.
The old Android Market apks [in 'Android Market' > 'Old Android Markets' folder)
I recommend 2.3.6 as it is the latest old market with the least amount of bugs.
How to open application management screen
Don't laugh, some of the new Android users really don't know about this.
Please make sure if your market version is the one with the ROM (not updated automatically or manually after ROM flash), it will only appear in the "ALL" tab.
App - Titanium Backup for Android
It refers to its Market Page and its Official Site.
Pro version gives the freezing option.
Freezing the Market Updater
Freeze the system app "Market Updater 1.0", if you are downgrading from Market 3.X.X to 2.3.X
or this app will auto download Market 3.X.X and upgrade it without your permission.
If you do not have Titanium Backup Pro, try uninstalling it with Root Uninstaller.
No worries, Market Updater will be back when you flash your ROM/GAPPS again.
Android Market Content Filtering
I am not sure whether this is affecting the issue, but for me, I always put all of them on to prevent Google from hiding any apps for me
Google Accounts in Android Market
I know this is quite a common "solution",
But still, make sure you have chosen the correct Google Account for your Market!!
The Android Market version 2.3.X
The Android Market version 2.3.X
(2.3.6 is recommended)
1. Simple Clearing
1) Go to the application management screen of "Market".
2) Force stop it.
3) Clear cache.
4) Clear data.
5) Open Market, open "My Apps" list and check whether all your apps are there.
If this doesn’t help, try performing a reboot between steps 4 and 5!
2. Random App Installation
When you encounter your "error" (kernel panic, connection lost, market force close, etc.)
you may have not install/uninstall any app on your phone because you focused on the market problem.
From others & my experiences, installing an app will cause Android Market to refresh the "My Apps" list.
1) Force stop Market.
2) Clear cache.
3) Open Market, do NOT open "My Apps" list.
4) Install a random app. (it doesn't matter which, but light ones are recommended so it saves time and data)
5) Open "My Apps" list, check whether all your apps are there.
3. Random App Re-installation
It is similar to Method 2, but in a slightly different way
As it causes the Market to refresh the list for 2 times - app uninstallation and app installation
it is still worth a try.
1) Force stop Market.
2) Clear cache.
3) Open Market, do NOT open "My Apps" list.
4) Uninstall a random app. (Choose those which does not store important app data on your phone as uninstalling it will wipe all the data of that app)
I recommend: Google Voice Search / Google Goggles / Stopwatch apps / Benchmark apps / Calculator apps... you know what I mean
5) Force stop Market. (no need to clear cache)
6) Open Market, do NOT open "My Apps" list.
7) Install any app. (You can install the uninstalled one if you want it back)
8) Open "My Apps" list, check whether all your apps are there.
The Google Play Store version 3.X.X
The Google Play Store version 3.X.X
(latest version is recommended)
4. Market Doctor from Titanium Backup
I forgot whether this is a PRO only function or not,
but just try it IF:
- You have backed up ALL your apps (versions can be ignored) BEFORE the "error" (kernel panic, connection lost, etc) occured.
- You installed the latest version of Titanium Backup to perform Market Doctor.
It sometimes helps, but if it doesn't, don't worry, it has very less chance to cause harm.
According to the app developers' announcement in the update on 7 March 2012 (version 4.8.2), Titanium Backup is working with the new Google Play store.
5. Downgrading Google Play Store
As I've tried some of the methods above, Google Play Store version 3.X.X is harder to be fixed!
If you can accept the older look of 2.3.X (its faster though ), you may choose to downgrade your Google Play and try the methods above.
If Google Play Store / GAPPS with your ROM is 2.3.X and was auto updated by Market Updater or manually by yourself with an apk:
1) Press "Uninstall Updates" beside "Force Stop" (in my screenshot, the "Cancel" button)
Sorry my ROM is with the newest Google Play Store so there isnt an option like this but you will have it.
2) Freeze/remove "Market Updater 1.0". (Refer to The Basics above)
(Optional) Check whether if it downgrades your Market to an excessively old version (i.e. 2.3.3). If so, you may choose to manually upgrade to 2.3.6. (Refer to The Basics above)
3) Follow the instructions in the above section (Market version 2.3.X).
If Google Play Store / GAPPS with your ROM is 3.X.X and you also do not have the "uninstall updates" button:
1) Download the older version (2.3.6) of Market from The Basics above
2) With Root Explorer (There are free alternatives, if you can't find them on Market, try Software Development Section in XDA Android Forum)
3) Rename the Market apk to "Vending.apk"
4) Mount R/W in /system/app
5) Copy and Paste the downloaded "Vending.apk" into /system/app. Yes, replace the original one with the ROM.
6) Do not forget to freeze/remove "Market Updater 1.0"
7) Follow the instructions in the above section (Market version 2.3.X).
Finally I'm proud to announce...
6. The Ultimate Framework Wipe
Lol the name sounds scary but actually no danger at all!
This was the most lately discovered by me, and for me it is working on both versions!
How about you?
This is gonna be a bit longer, read and follow carefully.
1) Go to the application management screen of "Google Play Store".
2) Clear cache of "Google Play Store".
3) Force stop "Google Play Store".
DO NOT CLEAR DATA OF "Google Play Store".
4) Go to the application management screen of "Google Services Framework".
5) Clear data of "Google Services Framework".
6) Confirm it.
7) LONG PRESS POWER MENU AND REBOOT RIGHT NOW. ON THIS SCREEN.
8) Open Google Play Store, open "My Apps" list and check whether all your apps are there.

Conclusion
Thank you for your time supporting my work on this guide.
I hope this would be the first longest and the most helpful "MY APPS" solution on the net and I really want to share my experiences and findings to help other people who are frustrating like me when I encounter those problems

Any feedbacks are totally welcome,
and if you discover any other alternate solution, please don't hesitate to PM me so I can add it here of course I won't forget the credits!

Use it to scan for offending Apps, Note that it requires active data connection. What it basically does is compare your Apps database with the online Android Market Database and then single out the offending Apps. Presently, the only solution it offers is to uninstall the Apps from your Phone which for me is unacceptable because most of them are Samsung Core System Apps like Videos, Galllery etc, you don't wanna lose your System Apps.
When the scan finish just take note of the offending Apps, it would help to write them down. Do not use their Fix tool because it will delete the Apps from your Phone or if you use REMOVE MARKET LINKS ONLY those Apps will give you FORCE CLOSE afterwards. The best option is go to Titanium Backup --> Batch --> Detach User & System Apps from Market --> Deselect all --> NOW SELECT ONLY THE OFFENDING APPS --> Run the Batch Operation --> Reboot.
After this go back to Android Market and all your Apps will be there. If It didn't work the first time, redo the whole process, maybe you missed one App.
This has 99.9% success and I believe it will work for you.
ADDITION
For those of us that Schedule Backups with TB, you have to do some tweaks to your Preferences if not; after such backups, the whole problem will come back again. This is all you have to do:
Go to Preferences --> Deselect MARKET LINK (When backing up an app, save its Market Link. Requires SQlite).
Be aware that this might happen again if you upgrade ROM or restore whole system with TB Backup, but with such Tool at hand, all it takes is less 3 minutes to fix.
Hope this is helpful

Yes, problem continues. (ROM reflash). I don't thinks GAPPS reflash will work, my ROM came with every basic Google apps, except Maps.
Unfortunately not working. Saw my paid apps once (none of the free ones) and then disappeared again...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
Works and my 50 downloaded apps reappears for a few minutes and disappears again to become 8. It works if the last app downloaded must not be moved to sd card. Try and download a small app without moving to sd card. I suspect there's a bug that messes up the pointers and the last download must not move to sd card and it acts as a stopper and displays the complete list.
That's why it seems to be random, sometimes works sometimes not because it depends on the last downloaded app.
In my case both v2 and v3 markets were fixed by killing and clearing cache of Market and Google Services Framework. Restarted phone after that, of course.
Clearing Market and Google Services Framework fixed mine for about 10 minutes. I'm wondering now (after loading a new ROM yesterday) if this is connected to the Chrome To Phone issue I had to fix? In that case, it appears that your Google account stores each ROM you install/activate, and over a certain number it won't connect C2P any more - had to restore an old copy of the C2P data, disconnect it, then uninstall/reinstall fresh so it could put a new entry in whatever data structure stores this. This could explain why restoring backups with TiB blows your connection - and the Market Doctor in TiB doesn't work because there's no "room" for the connection between the new load and the market. And why uninstall/reinstall of apps works sometimes. For people on stock, could be just a glitch or because they've had multiple devices (one thing I don't think I ever saw get asked in the empty MyApps threads).
Just had this happen on ICS 4.0.3 on my NS4G. ICS had fixed this issue for me now its back. FUUU-----------!!!!!
Thank you very much!

The "Ultimate Framework Wipe" worked for me, only ONCE, you have to repeat this procedure every time you want to check "My Apps". It's not a Perfect Fix but it's the only one we have right now that works - Thanks Again for the FIX - let us know if you come up with a Permanent Fix, I'm running XXLP2 if that helps any

Hello!!
This is a simple workaround to prevent the google service (com.google.android.gms-1.apk) that creates the anonying green Google Settings icon.
MANUAL:
1º Uninstall the Google playstore service from application manager or Remove the (com.google.android.gms.apk or com.google.android.gms-1.apk) from /data/app
2º Simply create a file in /data/app named ( com.google.android.gms-1.odex) As empty file.
END.
CWM flasheable:
View attachment antigms.zip]
Flasheable CWM /data/app fake com.google.android.gms-1 files to prevent to be installed.
First uninstall google playstore service and reboot to CWM flash this, and reboot, finish!.
I have been testing for ours and no force close or errors.
Discovered Side-effects:
-loose the remote playstore install functionality (press install from playstore website from pc). , Remote playstore install works!!
Another ideas are welcome.

Hello,test yourself, make a nandroid backup and check if it is relationed.
If it is relationed tell me, post there the results.
all this did was prevent me getting into playstore it opened itself and then closed itself????? thanks
Wouldn't it be easier to just go to the Google Play Services app info page and deactivate it? (Just long press in the app drawer and move it to app info)
Or is there any downside that I am not seeing? (besides it taking up a few kb of space)
I didn't test it since I don't mind the icon.
If you have a custom launcher that can can hide apps use that, that way you also keep the functionality it provides.

Not, you can't disable it, this service autostarts automatically. It takes more than few kb, takes about 5MB or more, but this is not the bad.
The bad thing is this could be something relationed with ads and system stadistics and google plus forced by google (remember google don't be evil).

I am not talking about closing it but deactivating it. Are we talking about the same option?
Because I have that option.
Why would it restart when I deactivate it? Or is Google not consequent enough here?
I don't want to try it since it will delete all user data and delete the updates.
But you are right, the app is bigger than I thought (both on the storage and RAM).

Sure?? I remember when I tried for first time that no....... it doesn't remove any user data, you are wrong..... the settings are stored in com.android.settings and com.android.settings.provider
About the updates it doesn't remove the updates.... the updates are part of playstore.apk/vending.apk and marketupdater.apk, not this.
I have news about playstore remote installation, it works!!!!! without this.
I have three buttons in my google play services app info:
'Beenden erzwingen' - force close ?
'Updates deinstallieren' - uninstall updates
AND
'Deaktivieren' - deactivate
If I hit the deactivate button it asks me if I want to reset all user data and all updates.
Are you perhaps on an older android version that does not yet have this?

Mine is Gingerbread (Cyanogen Mod 7.2).
Deactivate is like do nothing. For example, I can with systemcleaner put this service apk on the blacklist , but every time that the service starts the application kills like task killer, but this is bad for CPU,RAM and finally batteries, because it scales the cpu mhz up every time that the service tries to reload.
Is the same that if you put a task killer, you can kill the application but it reload again....
I think that the newer versions of playstore/vending calls automatically this apk service.
The solution is to remove and there is no apk = no application installed = no intent receiver = no aplication starts.
The odex file prevent that android application installer (pacman?) install/update the android play service application apk.
This is because if you create a odex of any apk that you have installed and then delete the apk (no the odex), then reset. You could check that the application disapear from app drawler and android application manager but there is the odex file with the same name of the application. But now if you try to reinstall, the android application shows the message of insufficient space only for this application, you can install any other without problem. This is because the android application installer detects the odex file.
My solution is based on this.
Bye.

Deactivate != force close.
They are NOT the same thing.
A deactivated app will not react to any intents. This is completely different from what a task killer does.
But user without Jelly Bean (I think that is the version this option came with) won't be able to do that.
So I guess that deleting the app and then blocking it is the only option for them.

I would recommed that you test it (deactivate) and check with adb shell and top command or "ps" to check if the service runs.
I had JB in the past and I was unable to deactivate. Every time that I entered in the playstore app , the Google services apk was called and running.

There is a lot more going on here. These Google Excreta Droppers are spying on us. I disabled it in startup, and it adds back itself.
The Google Play Services is pushed back in around 2 days after you uninstall. Within these 2 or three days, the Google Play wont install or download any app, it just shows the running bar. Now they have changed the color of their feces. I disabled the Google Play Services. and when I updated the youtube and run it, It says I cannot use it without Google Play Services. I uninstalled the update and it runs like before.
rotten Poop!!
They are definitely spying on us.
I advice you all the users, Do not sit relax. These feces holes should get serious piles, so that their feces accumulate in their bodies and never come out. It will happen.
Man havent you experienced this?
Should I use clock work mod recovery boot to install the attached zip?
And please let me know whether it will allow me to run updated youtube and other services without the Google Play Services.
Will the blank fix everything as before?
try getting amazon market not quite google but nearenuf.
when it asked me for my credit card details i just force closed app and reopened it to proceed because i put username password in it worked
Hmm.. This Google setting app might become useful after this May or in Android 5.0, key lime pie.. Since it's not hogging ram or consuming battery, why not just hide it?

FAQ
1. What is cleaned app?
Cleaned app is an original app loaded by wrapper. Granular permission management can be realized after cleaning. App cleaning will wrap the original app in your phone locally and reinstall the wrapped app so all access to privacy will be controlled. The wrapped app is exactly the same one as the original app, except it is loaded by the wrapper, so it is safe to use. The way we process an app is similar to Amazon. For cleaned version, autostart and background running can be disabled, and privacy access can be denied.
2. What permissions can be controlled after cleaning?
Granular app permissions includes autorun, background running, notifications, SMS sending, call making, SMS access, call log access, contact access, phone number acquisition, and location.
3. How to update an original app to cleaned version?
There are 3 ways to get app “cleaned”:
1) All apps downloaded from MoboClean are cleaned version.
2) Update apps downloaded from other markets to cleaned version through “Permission”>“App Manager”>“Original”
3) Set Cleaning Installer as default installer. Apps installed by Cleaning Installer are cleaned version as well.
4. Can cleaned apps update as usual?
Yes. Through two ways:
1) The most convenient way: Update through MoboClean
2) Install update APK through Cleaning Installer
5. Differences between cleaned app and the original app
Cleaned app is on the basis of the original app but with a wrapper. The wrapped app is exactly the same one as the original app, except it is loaded by the wrapper, so granular permission control can be realized.
Declaration: MoboClean will not gather or upload any of your private data.
6. Cleaned app is not pirated one and contains no virus!
App cleaning means adding a wrapper to the original app to have fine-grained permission control, which will cause signature change. Cleaned version may be recognized as pirated or unsafe by some security or market apps, please ignore it.
Thank you so much for your everlasting support!!
Remind: UU AppPurifier does not need to "root" your phone. It will wrapper the original apk locally, then re-install the app. After that, you can control the permission dynamically. Only apps you want to control need to be "purified". Your suggestions are welcome!
All comments are welcome!
Let us know what you request from our app. We’ll work hard on the improvements.
Update to v1.2.3 today!
Change log:
1. Improvement of auto-installation
2. Improvement of stability

Does work the update through Playstore after "purification"?
gonna love this!! great app man!!
anyway I noticed that after I purified one of the apps, its still showing in the android running apps list but with service:0 and consume 0.00mb memory, so is it safe to assume that it's not running? (neither app or service...)
Thanks and keep up the good job!

Hi uusafe,
I just found out that once I purified "Shazam Encore" (before first start), I'm not able to signon from Google or Facebook from inside of the Shazam app.
Is there a workaround for this to be released soon?
And...is there an option to remove purified app from the list? For it to become original app?
Many thanks
After installing this phone became slow and broke some apps I have. Will also uninstall and reinstall all your apps so alot at least 1 hour before you can use your phone again. You will also be signed out of your apps that requires signing in

Sorry for the inconvenience. If you want to remove the purified app you can uninstall the purified one and install the original one. Furthermore, we will add an "un-purify" feature in recent version.
As for "Shazam Encore", we are testing on it. And we think it may because of the block from Google or Facebook to get corresponding information to sign. Purification of Facebook may solve this problem. We are testing on it and you can have a try if you want
Would like to ask something more about Shazam Encore.
1. What's the version of it
2. When did it need to signon? To share or to purchase or other condition?
Thanks for your prompt reply!
The Shazam Encore is just one of the apps that allows login via Google+ or Facebook. I believe in general (not only Shazam) purified apps unable to login with Google+ or Facebook. Some apps I need to login (either via Google+ or Facebook) because it can provide personal experience such as storing my favorite songs or publish my post on Facebook, etc.
FYI the Shazam Encore I downloaded as of today is the latest version ie. 5.3.3
Another example of app that failed to login(bind) via Facebook is this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mt.mtxx.mtxx&hl=en

You can turn on the auto-installer function(turn on it in menu->settings) which can simplify the procedure of purication greatly.
Purification should not cost that long What is the purification time for one app on average?
About the sign in part: Did you sign through Google+ or Facebook app?
BTW, we are working on solution for the login issue and will release it in a few weeks.

Did it need to sign on the current page with web signin?
like thisView attachment 3265374

( 2 ) If I've Google+ app or Facebook app/client installed, then it will proceed to client to complete the sign-in. It will then popup Google or Facebook permission window and user is asked to click "OK" to proceed sign-in.
( 1 ) Otherwise, (without Google/Facebook client installed), it will proceed to web sign-in (same like weibo sign-in screenshot you posted), I believe it's the case for the apps that adopt such sign-in methods.
Many thanks
I've been using dual apps for Twitter for ages and never had any problem opening links but since updating, whenever I click on a link the app just closes. I tried deleting all data for both copies before installing them and when I reinstall the first copy works fine but after I create the dual app, both of them crash/close when clicking on links.
I tried disabling the option in Twitter to "use in-app browser" but that didn't make any difference.
Has anyone found a fix for this because it's very annoying, especially as you can't even copy links in Twitter to paste into the browser manually?
Same here, MIUI version 12.5.17.
