I’ve been migrating a few apps at a time from a regular Samsung Galaxy Android phone to the Brax3. One of the apps I must have is “MyNavia Benefits”, which is how I turn receipts into my medical Flexible Spending Account for reimbursement. I can find this app easily in the Play Store from my Android phone, but I can’t find in the Aurora store.
Here it is in the Play Store:
Anybody have any tips on how to install this on my Brax3?
@shoebear It’s there but I can’t download it for the moment as it happens often with Aurora.
I downloaded the APK from APKPURE and it works. If you are patient you’ll be able to get it from Aurora soon.
Have you tried changing the device model via the spoof manager in Aurora store? You can access it via the config on top right (available when you open Aurora). Try selecting another device. When I get stuck with app now downloading or not showing up, changing to Samsung S25 or Pixel 9A usually does the trick. You can with other devices too.
I tried those 2 models but I get the same error, it can be persistent for days like with my banking app, I don’t think it’s related to the model.
seems to be an error on aurora app store end then. In that case, trying now and then is the only option.
Also worth searching for the error message in their issue board. There could be an issue created to help track progress of resolving, or even a workaround presented: Issues · Aurora OSS / AuroraStore · GitLab
It’s the usual “could not get files” error.
What I would like to point here is that generally the open-source community documentation lacks the basic link which connects someone “who knows computers” with a specific project.
That is a general sketch of how things work mostly with flow diagrams and some code snippets to demonstrate what you expect to see in the code, the essential files in the code and how one calls functions in other files or libraries.
For example in the MicroG case a basic Google Services presentation is needed and then a short diagram of the way MicroG simulates them.
I haven’t understood why many developers claim that they aren’t good in documentation since I consider this ability to be strictly correlated to understanding the mechanism.
The questions is just how you would present it compactly (preferably with diagrams) to someone who knows nothing but can understand the concepts.
Thanks, george and plamen! I will work on this today after work.
George, you said, “I downloaded the APK from APKPURE and it works. If you are patient you’ll be able to get it from Aurora soon.” You’re talking about the APK for MyNavia Benefits? I found it on APKPURE. That’s the first thing I will try this evening. Once it’s loaded and works, that’s probably all I will need; the app doesn’t get updated very often.
Yes, download it and install it, it may ask you to verify that you want to install an app from an unknown source.
Thanks, George! I downloaded it from APKPURE, installed it, and verified that it works.
