Use of this Feature
  • Force Update: When there is a major update, set the isForceUpdate parameter to true to force users to update the app if not using the latest version.
  • Maintenance Mode: Set the inMaintenanceMode parameter to true when you want to set your app in maintenance mode due to a bug or you don't want users to use it right now.
  • Change Log: When you release a new update for an app, you can include the new features or updates in the change log by editing the same value.
