Sync issues when a new column is added to the app

[Mayur_Vaikar]

Hi All,

I’ve build an app which is in production. Recently I made a change to the app, added a new column to the table and made a stable version of the app.

Few of the users never closed the app and were on the older version of the app. So all the work they did on the app never got sync to the database.

Is there any way we can avoid such situation. For instance force logout users or tell the users they are on older version of the app.

Thanks,
Mayur

For instance force logout users or tell the users they are on older version of the app.

You can’t force them to log out, however you can use the broadcast notification in order to inform them they need to sync their app to get the latest version.
