versionCode is not increased

See original GitHub issue

Could you please remember to increase versionCode before tagging a new release (and building its APK)? Currently, it’s still set to 1 – so technically, there have never been any updates (Android uses versionCode to decide whether an APK is to be considered an update). I wonder how this is dealt with for your Playstore releases, as there different versions are listed properly.

I ran the build script again, so if there was a problem, it should be fixed. Thanks.
