How to use In-App Update Component

Regarding the in-app update component

Ya you for test you need to change your app’s package name to to any existing app in play store like me I changed package name to flipkart’s package name which is com.flipkart.android and version code and version name to 1 and 1.0 and export apk I think it doesn’t work in companion and make sure your test app’s package name do not have to match any existing app I mean if package name is flipkart then you have to uninstall original flipkart otherwise you get app not installed error See below scr…

This method of testing is not working so does anyone know about any other testing method of the In-App Update component??

I want to test it before using this feature in my final update of the app… Any help would be greatly appreciated. @Diego

[techbrainz001 (TechBrainz)]

please send me the blocks what you use…!! for in app update

[ravigarg]

Why? Everything is clearly mentioned in the guide itself.

Hi All

I have implemented this as below, however this did not work while the app was updated in Google Playstore. Any pointer will help.

I have ensured minimum API as below:

[Vedang (Indian boy)]

Did you called procedure when screen initialises

[Anil_Baheti (AB)]

Yes, obviously

[ravigarg]

Try checking if it has initialised.
By this block inappupdate.initialised

[Conor]

Use the In-App Update.Initialized event, not the Screen.Initialize event

[vknow360 (Sunny Gupta)]

@Conor

Use the In-App Update.Initialized event, not the Screen.Initialize event

I wonder how the event gets triggered.
Does app automatically check for update on screen initialize?

[Soham_Shah]

Why don’t you post your extension in extensions category? Ignore if already done

[Jaco_M (Jaco Mathew)]

Based on this:

@Conor

Use the In-App Update.Initialized event, not the Screen.Initialize event

Are the blocks

@ravigarg

A. Check for an update when the screen is initialized:

1. Flexible Update

and

@ravigarg

2. Immediate Update

Correct ?

[ravigarg]

NO, things have changed now. These are the correct blocks you should use. I will update the guide soon.

Hi i have a doubt . When i publish my updated apk file to the playstore , will the app (or the users ) come to know about the updates . If so , how is that been done because will the playstore notify the app ?
