An Android library that checks for app updates on Google Play, GitHub, Amazon, F-Droid, or a custom server. It notifies users of new versions via a Material dialog, Snackbar, or system notification and supports API 9+.
Use cases
- check for app updates on google play from my android app
- notify users when a new version is available
- show an update dialog with changelog in android
- check github releases for new app versions
- poll my own server for app update availability
- show a snackbar or notification when an update is found
When to choose
- you maintain an Android app distributed via Play Store, GitHub, Amazon, or F-Droid and want in-app update prompts
- you want a simple, customizable update checker with dialog, snackbar, or notification display
When to avoid
- you need in-app update downloads or forced updates (this library only notifies, it does not install)
- your app targets only modern Android and you prefer Google's official In-App Updates API
- you need iOS or cross-platform update checking
