The new app is with Google, we're just waiting on them and it will be live asap.

Will it be an update that replaces the current RiotX on my phone, or will I have to download it as a separate app?

It will replace the current Riot Android App. So if you are an early adopter of RiotX you will need to download the main app.

edit: commented before reading TFA, it'll probably be a new app.

Same for F-droid? I suppose I'll need to be testing the migration process again..
