<p><span class="text-info">Team NewPipe's F-Droid repository allows updates for NewPipe to be available faster than on the default F-Droid repository. This is the recommended way of installing NewPipe.</span>
|
|
|
|
You will need to add our repository to your F-Droid client. We will only show the steps to add the repo to the official F-Droid app. Please note that it is possible for other clients (such as Neo Store) to have this repository pre-added upon install.

In case NewPipe is <b>already installed</b> on your device, make sure to <a href="/FAQ/tutorials/import-export-data/#export-database"><b>backup your application data</b></a> and <b>uninstall</b> NewPipe before proceeding.<br>

After you have followed the instructions below and reinstalled NewPipe from our repository, <a href="/FAQ/tutorials/import-export-data/#import-database"><b>import your backup</b></a>.

Note: If you have the official F-Droid version installed, you won't be able to see (or install) the Newpipe version because it has a different signature. To see it, enable "Include incompatible versions" from F-Droid settings. To install it, first make a database backup of your existing version, uninstall it, then install the new one and restore your backup (<a href="/FAQ/tutorials/import-export-data/#export-database">tutorial</a>).
