In step 7.You can
If app number not = value
and you can skip the Step 1

You can add Push Notification by OneSignal when Screen1 open if your app isn’t the latest version.

If you have published your app in the playstore,you can set the OK button to link your app update link.

Thanks.

How about redirecting the user to your app on playstore when they click OK?

This will make the user easily find our app & he just needs to click a btn "Update"
rather than going to playstore, finding app, etc :wink:

So just create two button for the alert
Example : Update and Close
if app version ≠ value
in Alert call show with output
then do if was confirmed
open link “#” (# means the URL which is published app link)

I haven’t understand the step 3 and 4 please tell me what is it

well basically it is for checking for updates so that if you launch a new update also update the airtable database
