Termux is an android-based terminal application. A few months ago, the Termux application disappeared from the Playstore and now it is back.
For those of you who don't have a PC/Laptop, or maybe prefer to use Termux on your cellphone. This terminal application is indeed very useful and also very easy to use.
But, yesterday I tried to download Termux on the Playstore. But why, can't I update? Errors keep coming.
This is the error:
```
~ $ pkg update
Ign:1 https://termux.net stable InRelease
Ign:1 https://termux.net stable InRelease
Ign:1 https://termux.net stable InRelease
Err:1 https://termux.net stable InRelease

All packages are up to date.
Warning: Failed to fetch https://termux.net/dists/stable/InRelease Unable to connect to termux.net:https:

```
When I try $termux-change-repo
The result:
~ $ termux-change-repo
termux-change-repo: command not found
Command not found!!!
Tsk tsk, I had a headache looking for the solution
But, luckily I've found it. So, I want to share it with you guys.
How to do it? Here is the solution.
1. You guys just delete the Termux that you installed on the Playstore. The one there is really rotten: v
You guys download it using my link "Download"
That's the latest version of Termux in 2025
2. Once installed, run the command:
$ termux-repo-storage
(If it doesn't work, you can go to the application settings on your cellphone and give Termux permission to access your cellphone's storage. )
$ termux-change-repo
- select main repository
- select number 2 (default repository)
- ok
Wait until the mirror is successfully changed to default.
Then run:
$ pkg upgrade
And done
Your Termux has been successfully used.
Easy, right??
That's the solution, thanks for reading:v
