I've been using the releases from github for a while, but this is a great step towards availability for many.

To me this is a feels like a full blown release as I've been using the beta, alpha, the builds on a fork of one of the maintainers github fork, ... All of them with very few issues.

The first version (or I guess second? It's called V2) has been available on google play for many years as mentioned by @[email protected] but isn't updated anymore. I have a Pixel 3a so still use it but this new one is not the first release or anything.

Oh, there's a Lawnchair legacy! It makes more sense now, but they could have changed the icon of this one to make it less confusing.
