I'm Playbook Stoopid with Android Apps.

I've recently figured out how to convert and sign Android apps for the Playbook. Once you get through the initial setup, it's actually really easy. My question is this, when the Android Market tells me that my apps need to be updated how do I do it? Do I download the new one and convert it? Do I need to delete the old one before I install? I'm actually kinda confused. Will I lose all my Kindle books if I update? So many questions, So little time. I've converted a lot of apps and don't want to lose anything, but at the same time the apps have a lot of fixes.

dont upgrade the kindle app if you have an older version that works. WIth updated apps you can download the apk and convert it and load in the new version. It will copy over the old one, in some games you lose your score and place, with e-reader, comics and magazine apps you wont lose your books and stuff. If you do upgrade apps, make a drop box account to share with people or at least tell me so i can add them to my app store.

I've converted some tools for truckers. Recap+ and BigRoad are 2 of them. I've also converted the newest Kindle app, but didn't install it. I get bored and convert, test and then delete them. Was sure how to share them. They've all been free apps and in a couple cases, I got written consent from the Dev.
