This happens because F-Droid, PlayStore & Github apk signatures are different. It will only update if the signature match else will return error
So you've to uninstall the old version if you're updating the app from another source

And the release is usually delayed on F-Droid due to checks & custom builds. Same for PlayStore. It'll be available soon
Please do not create issues for this reason. We've discussion for this 😄
