Force update

Sometimes, a release of the app of a feature makes the app crashing. This is for emergency cases. It is very handy to have a force update mechanism:

  • the app starts
  • checks if the current version should be updated by asking backend
  • react to the result

The force update should have as result something similar: no, force or suggest.

  • no: nothing to do
  • force: do not start the app, redirect to the app store to update it
  • suggest: suggest there is a new version available
