Not Happy with AppMonster 2.0.4

Recently, I upgraded to AppMonster 2.0.4 and am not happy with it's new app backup algorithm. It backups apps to "/sdcard/appmonster2/backup/" and uses the app's package name as directory name (e.g. "com.android.vending").

The previous AppMonster 0.7.9 version, which I was using before updating, has a better backup algorithm. The original algorithm backups apps to "/sdcard/appmanager/" and uses the actual app's name and version number as file name (e.g. "Market 2.3.6.apk").

The older algorithm is better because you can easily identify which app and which version you are looking at. And by using the version numbers in the file name, you can backup different versions of the same app. Therefore, you can go back to any version you like.

Ironically, that's exactly what I'm going to do with AppMonster. I am going to re-install AppMonster 0.7.9 from my backup.
