Features

📰 Google News

Patch	Description
🪄 Custom Tabs	Opens news articles in your default browser, so you can use your ad blocker and browser extensions.
⚙️ GMS Support	Enables Google sign-in via MicroG GmsCore — a free and open-source replacement for Google Play Services.

⚠️ Known Issue: Google Sign-In on Fresh Install

GMS/MicroG sign-in does not work on a fresh install of the latest patched version. You must first sign in on an older patched version, then update.

Workaround:

1. Download Release v1.3.4 (the .mpp file)
2. In Morphe Manager, add the v1.3.4 .mpp as a local patch source
3. Patch Google News v5.155.0.885456612 with the v1.3.4 patches and install it
4. Open the patched app and sign in to your Google account
5. Now switch back to the latest release as patch source and patch the latest supported Google News version
6. Install the new patched APK as an update over the old one — your login will be preserved

📦 Kleinanzeigen

Patch	Description
🚫 Hide Ads	Hides sponsored ads and Google Ads. Also disables Microsoft Clarity analytics.
🔕 Hide Pur	Hides the Pur ad-free subscription option from the settings menu.
🔗 Remove Tracking Params	Removes UTM tracking parameters from URLs shared via the in-app share function.
