There are also two alternatives: <a href="https://apphub.io/" rel="nofollow">https://apphub.io/</a> and <a href="https://microsoft.github.io/code-push/" rel="nofollow">https://microsoft.github.io/code-push/</a>. Works for me in the real app very well, even in a synchronous mode in some cases.
The most interesting part is that Apple seems to be cool with this:<p>> Does Apple permit this?<p>> Yes! Section 3.3.2 of the iOS Developer Program allows it "provided that such scripts and code do not change the primary purpose of the Application by providing features or functionality that are inconsistent with the intended and advertised purpose of the Application."<p>I really, really hope this doesn't go away.
As somebody building my first react-native app at the moment, and planning to submit to the app store this week - thank you!<p>2 questions:<p>1. If you don't ask the user to update immediately after it is downloaded, when will the update apply? The next time the app is opened?<p>2. Is it possible to handle events around the update process from from Javascript? (For example an `onBeforeUpdate` or `onAfterUpdate` event.)
