Because they're now generating reproducible builds on Android, Wireguard is unifying the signing keys across several distribution platforms (F-Droid, Play Store, Self-release).

F-Droid users in particular need to uninstall the old Wireguard app and re-install it following these steps:

1. ⋮ -> Export tunnels to zip file.

2. Uninstall the WireGuard app entirely.

3. Reinstall the WireGuard app from the Google Play Store or F-Droid.

   * Be sure to install version ≥ 1.0.20230405.
4. + -> Import from file or archive -> Downloads/wireguard-export.zip

5. File Manager -> delete Downloads/wireguard-export.zip
