Comment (by eighthave):
It is easy to reliably detect whether Google Play and/or F-Droid is
installed, so the UI should only show options that make sense based on
that info. E.g. only show Play or F-Droid buttons if they are installed.
The open case is what to do if neither Play nor F-Droid is detected.
There could be a `market:` link, which in theory should open in any app
store, but I think it is unevenly implemented. My guess is that the
direct APK download option probably makes more sense.
As for building this final release, I think it should not be a full Orfox
build. It should only be a tiny shim app to walk the user through
installing Tor Browser.
This shim app can use the same logic for detecting Play/F-Droid to detect
if Tor Browser is installed. If it is installed, I think the Orfox shim
should prompt the user to uninstall itself. That's also very easy to do.
