Installing newer version of IPA - do I need to uninstall the old version? #45

Hello, I have an app on an old version that is working and has my current data. I have downloaded a newer version of the app with the technique explained in this guide (but not the latest). I plan to use AppManager to install, but do you generally have to uninstall the old app first? Or can it be upgraded like normal? Thank you.

You don't need to uninstall the old app. Doing so will delete all your data, which is obviously bad. Just overwrite it with the new one.
