Hi there,  
Did you mean how to know your app current version?You can go to your device info and simpler to click your application info.

It would not help him. It wants to force the user to update the app if the app version is old

Hello,

To do this, you need to create a variable inside the application with the current version, and when launching the application, compare it with the version that is installed in Firebase or the web server.
