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
