In App self updating

[Nick_F_2]

Hi

I'm looking at the possibility of my App checking for a new version online and downloading within itself.

Firstly is this possible, if so how do I download and I run an APK/IPA file within the relevant platform.

I never done it but there is a code example in stackoverflow on how to do it in android.

You will need to create a cordova plugin to do it as it's in java.

Another option I'm thinking of doing for my app to avoid problems is to check if there is a new version and if so then to show a message to the user and on click to open the store application showing my app so the user will just click update.
