Using the fake yalp store should allow me to view and download APKs
The UI shows a generic server when selecting "fake yalp store account", and logcat shows

That's accurate, since a manual curl of http://tokendispenser-yeriomin.rhcloud.com/email (whatever that is...) yields
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">

(at least, it does right now). Maybe it's an intermittent problem, I'll re-try later.

Also experiencing this issue.
@jypma Yes, there is a problem with the hosting. I'm moving token dispenser now.
thanks
Same here
same situation but thanks for working on it!
@jypma @Guara111 @RSDamasceno @paul8klee See the releases page
Naive question : what's the use of the yalp-store-ota-27.zip file on the release page ?
@breversa It can be used to install Yalp Store as a system app if you have your bootloader unlocked.
Thanks, that's what I thought. But why is the zip file smaller than the apk ? Is the content the same, but with more (efficient) compression ?
@breversa apk files are not ordinary zip files. To work on android apk files are zipaligned. It is a process which adds empty padding to most files in the apk to make them start at some predictable offset. This lets the android OS pick files out of apks without decompressing it all. This means apks are compressible. See the docs for details.
