Pushing updates as a maker

You improve your app, and everyone who has it gets the new version. No fuss, no sending around.

First refine, then push

You change your app as usual: select it at the top of Build an app and say what should be different. Once the change is done, there is a new version to share.

The push update button

Open the App Store. Your own apps carry a *yours* label with a Push update button. One click and a new version goes out.

Publishing through the gear does exactly the same — two doors to one action. Visibility and channel stay as you set them.

What happens on the other side

Everyone who installed your app receives the update automatically. If someone prefers not to, they switch off *auto-update* for that one app and stay on their own version.

Important: an update touches the app, not the user's data.

Frequently asked questions

Does an update go out automatically when I change something?

No. An update leaves your environment only when you click push or ask for it.

Can a user refuse an update?

Yes, by turning off auto-update for that app.
