I use neo store as my f Droid client but when I install an app on Google Play store neo store also starts installing that app, is it actually installing a second app?

    If an app is present in the izzydroid repo, it can be updated from the fdroid and play store because the signatures match. You can add those them to a list of non-updatable apps

      Is there any downside to leaving them out of the non-updatable list?

        It won’t be updated from fdroid, that’s all. If you mistakenly add fdroid signed apps to the list, you could miss some updates. But that’s reversible. No permanent downside as far as I know.

          I mean the inverse. I don’t add anything to the list, will both stores attempting to update the app cause any problems?

            No, only one store can update the app at the time. If even one is available in both apps
