update app modal undismissable #1267

Closed ShaunSHamilton closed 5 months ago

ShaunSHamilton commented 5 months ago

When there is an update of the app, a modal pops up asking if I would like to do so now. However, when I do not want to, the modal is non-dismissable - no close button, and tapping outside the border of the modal does not close it either.

Yes, this is the intended behavior but in the recent version we made the requirement to show the upgrade dialog a bit relaxed and dependent on a minimum app version value which we set. This way the dialog isn't shown up everytime there's an upgrade and instead will only show up when there's a breaking change or major fixes involved in the update(as you can see in the release notes there was a breaking behavior of the MCQ challenges).

The reason I went with this behavior is because it's easier to push out updates in sync with our APIs and also prevent users being in older versions with known bugs.

That does make a lot of sense.

The only issue was I could not update the app, because I was on mobile data, but wanted to listen to a downloaded podcast.

Thank you for the clarification, though.
