Literotica Android App Update???

Yeah I will attached.

I have also fixed an issue with the padding at the bottom where it wasn't taking into account the nav bar or the gesture bar so it was cutting off part of the text while reading. Again this app is old.

Hope this is ok with the site. If not please delete. I do like that app way better than the web page and just want to get parts of it working again on newer devices. I've been open to what I've modified. I call it RC5 and incremented the version number. Here is the filehash as well to verify it's the one I have posted.

I downloaded this onto my S24+ but when i went to login it gave me an "username empty" error even though i had it typed in. I've also been getting an error from the regular app on my Tab 4 Nook. it was working fine last week but over the last few days it is giving me a connection error, even though my nook is connected to my wifi.
 
My understanding is that the Literotica app has not received a single update since 2020. The odds of getting an update or fix now, after almost five years of no development seems extremely low. I wouldn't hold your breath.

Yes i used for months no error but from last week it gives empty name error.

Thank you so much for doing this! I was wondering why me favoriting and ratings were failing, then while I cleared cache, etc I couldn't log back in.

I also appreciate you not asking fo any permissions on this.

Edit: Spoke too soon. It's giving me the "username empty" error now. I'm guessing they have made some updates to the site that broke the login on this again.

Same issue here, I much prefer the native app over the mobile site. Any way we can get the "empty username" fixed? My phone still works fine because it was already logged in, but my tablet receives this error.

Won't log in. Says username is empty. It's not.
 
There's another lit app on GitHub give it a try I'm still trying it
is that version able to log in? I think that's the version I'm using, linked further up in this discussion, and it's the same error signing in. If the app was logged in a few weeks ago, and you haven't logged out, it will continue to work. problem is if you log out and then try to log back in or reinstall the app on a new device.

I'll chime in to say the app version posted in this thread gave me the "username is empty" when it's obviously not on my new(er) phone running Android 14. The old official app is still logged in & working well enough (no ratings or adding to favorites allowed) on my old phone running Android 10.

Goodbye Lit app; you were my preferred avenue for many years.

nope cant log in just tried it on my new phone
 
I do not like using the browser, having a native app is a lot nicer.



I got it working, Android 14 blocks Android 6.0 (API Level 24) and below.

I decompiled it and they had Min Android 2.2 (API level 8) / Target Android 4.4 (API level 19).
I set them both to Android 8.1 (API level 27). This was the highest I could set it without it crashing. At 28 it would just instantly close.

I also added a permission in the Manifest (android:excludeFromRecents="true") to keep the app from showing up in recents when you hit switch app. I was also thinking of making another apk that changes the name and the icon to something else.

This isn't that hard to do, there are easy instructions to do so. However if anyone wants it without having to do it I can share the apk. But since I had to resign it it will show up as unknown publisher, and you would have to trust me.

You can also just install the app from adb and use the force option so it will install regardless of the sdk.



Hope this helps.
Trying to login to the app after installing and it says username empty
 
Hi.

Just upgraded my phone and I'm sad to say the Literotica Android App no longer installs.

Now running Android 14.

Anyone know of a work around or if an update to the app is in the works?

I found that when I upgraded too. However luckily I can still use my old phone for the app, it needs recharging after every session, but it's the only way, for now to keep using the app.
 
Whilst it hasn't been updated for a while, I use the github.com unofficial app with no problems.

For those who prefer the web version, good for you, but when travelling with no Internet, being able to download long stories and read offline is a huge plus for the app.

Have you tried to log out and back in on the unofficial (don't do it).
I did it last week and get an error unable to sign in user name error, I just tried again moments ago same error.
As long as you don't log out you might not have a problem but if its a new install your toast.

once you log out you'll never be able to log in until lit fixes it.
 
Ok I've tried the web page stories it sucks!
you cant close it and come back to the same line like the app there's no way to know how far you are down the page to even guess the location your at
I would like the original app fixed.
I have a friend that writes mobile apps he said that if the source was open it wouldn't be to hard to fix it but it still costs money to do it.
 
I will he makes his living at this and I'm not sure he'd spend his time on it as a favor to me.
I'd be glad to purchase the app if it gets fixed but obliviously the owners don't care or have the revenue to have their app professionally redone.
The unofficial app on git hub is a different story being opens source but its beyond my capacity to do it.

It's not that simple.

As far as we know, the site is maintained by 2 people. They don't want anyone else involved in that - which is their choice. So "not caring" and "not being able to afford" isn't part of the equation - there's no "obviously" about it.

As far as charging for the app - they can't post it on Google Play or the Apple Appstore because its adult content, so they'd have to host it here for d/l behind a paywall. They don't charge for anything else on the site, so they don't have the backend for that and its just one more thing that would have to be developed and maintained by Manu. On top of that...the main site is being slowly redone, and they are changing the backend and the API as part of that. It makes no sense to split those limited resources in continually updating the app when its just going to change. You may not agree with that, but that's how it is.

Had it on my phone and was logged in but couldn't use any features that require logging in like adding to favorites or rating. Could pull up stories and my list of already favorites but that's about all. This happened in the past and logging out then back in took care of it but seems it's a compatibility issue this time so that didn't work and with the compatibility issue I couldn't even log back in due to the username error. Prior to coming here and seeing it's a compatibility issue I un-installed hoping a fresh install would solve the problem so now I can't even reinstall using official releases. Got the resigned app installed thats posted here so I can browse at least but this one also gives the username error so i still can't log in, which defeats the purpose/reason I liked using the app. Looks like I'll be going browser only and hope they eventually get working on this though it seems unlikely considering we're over a year out from the issues appearance and still no fix.
 
just a side note, going into 2025 the app disappeared from my phone completely. i also get username empty, no other app works right. but heres the mystery revealed which started my issue, the state i live in came down on adult sites and apps. geo location automatically slammed my devices. shortly i will try a vpn app to show my browser/geo loc in a difft state where this isnt the case.
