Yes, that is the primary problem I know about.

happy to replace the current app with a very simple "You must upgrade, go
here" type app. We can offer both a link to Google Play, F-Droid, and to a
direct APK download.

> Also, btw, we can include a notice in Orbot, since we will be removing
the link to Orfox there. We can add a message about why you don't need
Orbot for TBA, etc.
That would be awesome, thanks.
