I have installed OM from F-Droid a quite long time ago (in replacement of Maps.me, at this time....)

Since some time (but I cannot say exactly how long ?), Google Play Store ask to update it (while I never installed it from Play Store). While in the past, it was not the case, and never proposed such, even when my OM version was outdated.
And if I let play store to update it, the update eventually fails...

Moreover, the version proposed by Play store is said "November 17".... while currently installed version is 2023.11.17-17-FDroid.... ie. apparently the same....

Question 1 : Do you know why Play Store now propose to "manage" OM while it was not the case in the past ?
Q 2 : Is there a way to avoid it (because, since update fails, Play Store continue to propose the update indefinitely... that is not "blocking", but nevertheless a little bit annoying)
Q 3 : BTW, is there any difference (and if yes, which one(s)) between FDroid version and Play store version ?

Thanks in advance for answers.....

System information:

  • Operating system and its version: Android 7
  • Organic Maps version: 2023.11.17-17-FDroid
  • Device Model:Samsung Galaxy A3-2016 (yes, quite old, I know !)
