@resist1984 I believe thats for better notifications, but make sure you install the APK on their website and not anywhere else. I don't have that issue with APK version.
@glitcher32 i also installed the APK from their website. But note that I never login to Google or use Google's services, and I disable the Google tools that come preinstalled.
@glitcher32 i should also mention that the message was bogus. I was asked to enter a PIN to access Playstore (not sure why it would be a PIN when google accounts are normally userid and pw), but I backed out and #Wireapp functioned anyway. I hope the nag doesn't persist.
@resist1984 Yikes, I hope you didn't listen to the popup and install Google services. If you get the pop up on Wire, simply press back or click the background and it will go away.
@glitcher32 consequences
@glitcher32 BTW, i believe playstore services must be installed, but they can be disabled. Looking at my notes, I disabled various dodgy things but looks like I never ran "pm disable --user 13 com.google.android.gsf"
@glitcher32 (i'm assuming playstore services is part of com.google.android.gsf)
@glitcher32 as I said I backed out of it and did not enter a PIN (not even sure what PIN it wanted). The fact that Wire continued working anyway suggests that perhaps #Wire ignored my refusal. It's fucked up that the Wire APK download would use gplay, not warn us about it in advance, not state what the purpose is, and not give any feedback after a user backs out of the PIN prompt as to the
