Android InApp Update not getting updates automatically

Question

I was considering Android InApp Update feature as an alternative solution for those clients who have turned off Auto-Updates from the PlayStore.

But I found it doesn't get the latest updates by itself. First I was considering that there's something bad in my code but later I found if I go to the PlayStore and fetch for the updates manually then it also shows me the update in my application. If it's so then it's a useless feature or am I missing anything regarding this?

it only works with API level 21 above. Do you see any errors in logs? — Amod Gokhale, Nov 20 '20 at 09:31

you cant update automatic but you can get the latest version of your app from playstore and show a dialog in your app to force update.. so when ever user open your app its show the update dialoge and you can also set this using api and check.. Programmatically check Play Store for app updates

Please paste your code here to verify if you are following everthing correctly. Meanwhile you can use this library to introduce in-app updates in your app. It's pretty simple to use and tested properly.
