A lightweight, highly customizable Android library for in-app version updates, handling update dialogs, APK background downloading, notification progress, and installation. It supports both Java and Kotlin, works without storage permissions, and can also be used as a standalone APK downloader.

Use cases

  • check for app updates and prompt users to upgrade on Android
  • download and install an APK in the background with a progress notification
  • implement forced app updates with a download progress dialog
  • build a custom in-app update dialog for Android
  • use an Android library as a simple APK downloader without storage permissions

When to choose

  • you need a simple, lightweight Android in-app update solution with minimal dependencies
  • you want customizable update dialogs, forced updates, and notification progress out of the box
  • you need support for old Android versions (4.1+) and Android 13 notification permission handling

When to avoid

  • you distribute your app through Google Play, where in-app APK updates are restricted
  • you need a cross-platform update solution for Flutter or other non-native frameworks
  • you require enterprise-grade update orchestration with staged rollouts and server-side management
