Research direction

First reproduce the upgrade from the release app to version 4.7.0 on Android 12, confirming whether a separate beta app is installed and whether existing data remains inaccessible. Trace the Android installation and upgrade handling from that reproduction, then verify that updating preserves the existing app and its data rather than creating a separate app.
