I have a problem with inapp update. A new version window appears, when you press the "Update now" button, unfortunately nothing happens, the application downloads in the background, but nothing happens app is not updated. I would like to add that I am testing it on the "Open Test" in play store path.
private void checkForUpdate() {
appUpdateManager
.getAppUpdateInfo()
.addOnSuccessListener(
appUpdateInfo -> {
// Checks that the platform will allow the specified type of update.
if ((appUpdateInfo.updateAvailability() == UpdateAvailability.UPDATE_AVAILABLE)
&& appUpdateInfo.isUpdateTypeAllowed(AppUpdateType.FLEXIBLE))
{
// Request the update.
try {
appUpdateManager.startUpdateFlowForResult(
appUpdateInfo,
AppUpdateType.FLEXIBLE,
this,
REQUEST_APP_UPDATE);
} catch (IntentSender.SendIntentException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
CodePudding user response:
You are using the FLEXIBLE
method for updating the App, which will download the app but will not auto-update it.
You have to monitor the flexible update progress and once the update is downloaded, you have to install it manually.
private val installStateUpdatedListener = InstallStateUpdatedListener { state ->
when (state.installStatus()) {
InstallStatus.DOWNLOADED -> completeUpdate()
InstallStatus.FAILED -> reportUpdateFailure(state.installErrorCode())
else -> {
// Right now we only care about download success / failed state
}
}
}
// Before starting an update, register a listener for updates.
appUpdateManager.registerListener(listener)
// Start an update.
// When status updates are no longer needed, unregister the listener.
appUpdateManager.unregisterListener(listener)
Once the update is downloaded, you have to call appUpdateManager.completeUpdate()
to complete the update.
