 - The file should be named `NEW_VERSION_CODE.txt`, using the new version code found in the [Preliminary steps](#preliminary-steps)
 - The file should have this structure (sections with no points can be removed):

 - Make sure you use the `•` for points (it looks nicer than `-`)
 - Capitalize the first letter in each point
 - Use English verbs as if you were asking someone to do something, so for example use "Fix abc" and not "Fixed abc"; this allows saving a few characters and using a consistent style

 - The PR title should be "Release vX.X.X (NEW_VERSION_CODE)"
 - Remove the entire PR template, and instead put these two lines in the description (the `ISSUE_NUMBER` will be replaced later):

-    Do not report regressions here, but rather in the corresponding issue: #ISSUE_NUMBER
-    The changelog is also there.

 ## Testing APKs
 
 The first time you open the release issue, and then each time some changes are made to the release PR, you should provide a debug APK in the `## Testing for regressions` section.
+
 - Wait for the Continuous Integration (CI) to finish testing the PR, then download the resulting debug APK artifact from the "Checks" tab
 - Rename it to `NewPipe_vX.X.X_RC1_debug.apk` where `RC1` should be incremented to `RC2` and so on each time a new APK is provided
 - Zip it and make sure the `.zip` file has the same name as the `.apk` it contains
 - Upload it in the issue description, replacing the `...` placeholder used above
 
 Sometimes it might be needed to also provide a release APK. In this case follow the same steps as above, with these differences:

 - Make sure you are on the `release-X.X.X` branch
 - Build the **release** APK yourself in Android Studio and sign it with your keys
 - Make sure it installs correctly on your device

 ## Having the APK signed by @TheAssassin
 
 Currently @TheAssassin is the only holder of NewPipe's APK signing keys. Therefore you should send the unsigned APK to him, after which he will sign it and send it back to you. He will also then publish the signed APK in NewPipe's F-Droid repo.

 - Rename `app-release-unsigned.apk` to `NewPipe_vX.X.X.apk`
 - Generate a signature for the APK file
