Update Multi platform apps #9617

Closed Dr-AkA closed 2 years ago

Dr-AkA commented 2 years ago

is there any way to update published apps without going through (App Store,Play Store,Windows Store)?

MagicAndre1981 commented 2 years ago

automatic updates via Appinstaller file is currently not supported in WindowsAppSDK.

Also look for MDM (Mobile Device Management) tools to deploy app updates without store

If i use mdm tools probably i broke user privacy laws, i need another solution for mac,ios, android windows doesn't matter

Please use discussions for questions on how to problems or consider turning to Stack Overflow. The issues here are meant to describe (potential) issues in the .NET MAUI codebase.

As for this question: I think there is a service called Code Push in App Center, there are ways to do it. But mainly Apple will have a hard look at your app for the review, they don't like apps to be updated outside of the store, it might not even be allowed as per their App Store guidelines.

offtopic, but in discussions you never get useful answers 🤷‍♂️
