This topic provides information on Enabling Force Update.

This configuration is optional.

To notify users of a new application version available on the Play Store, consider these options:

1. Within App, when the App detects a new version, prompt users suggesting an update.
2. The flag checks for updates and displays a cancellable popup to the user to update their application.
3. To implement this with the flag isAppUpdateManagerEnable to true in RootCheckFlags.

   Note:

   Ensure that App update functionality works only when the App is downloaded from the Play Store or via Internal App Sharing.
4. Follow the steps to check force app update: https://developer.android.com/guide/playcore/in-app-updates/test#internal-app-sharing.

Please note below things:

1. Make sure that the app that you are using to test the in-app updates, has the lower version code than the update version code.
2. Test with signed builds only
3. Enable Internal app sharing
