I have notice that quite a few application show version/history informations before installation. And I wonder how they do it.
Also, which may or may not be related, Titanium Backup has a full version history on AppBrain. Again I wonder how that is done.
Does anybody know?
Since titanium Backup has a funny star in the URL so normal links won’t work, here the link for cut/copy/paste.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
I suppose you’re referring to the change log on some apps. Well, they’re cheating – they’re making the version log part of the version name.
android:versionName="1.6.7: Now with fewer crashes and great new features. And much slower than before. How awesome."Note that it’s now possible to add a changelog when publishing an app, Google enabled that a few days ago. You just enter it on the website where you publish your app and enter the description. That will show up underneath your description, in the same font.
