This is hopefully a basic question – i’m new to Android dev – I want to update my android app in marketplace, its the 2nd ever edition.
So in the Manifest file I’ve left version code as 1 and made versionName 1.2, is this correct? Just because the android docs appear to state I should change both?
Cheers
Paul
The important part is changing the version code, this is what dictates whether an update is required.
If version 2 exists in the market, and the user has version 1 (or anything lower than 2) installed, they’ll be informed that there’s an update.
The versionName is purely for display purposes and you can leave it the same, or change it when you make a new release.
