Comment (by igt0):

 I have been testing the Fennec UpdateService to download and update TBA,
 my finds:

 1. It downloads a new apk(updated version) and saves it to an external
 storage. So the user must have the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission
 enabled.

 2. We should not allow the user to use the UpdateService when the app was
 installed using any app store(google play, f-droid).

 3. After downloading the apk, there are two methods to install it. Fennec
 can install it for you, or it sends a notification asking the user to
 click on it to install the apk. For us, I think that the second one has a
 better user experience.
