Android Question check version

[Uniko Sistemi srl]

Good morning everyone I would like some advice, I want to allow my app to check the version on the stores and notify the user if it needs to be updated. which road do I use? a file on my servers that I'm going to check or is there some other function that allows me to do it? what should be done? I work at B4x
thank you all

You can create a file on your server which contains the newest version-info
Download the file with okhttputils2 and compare it with the running version.

thank you very much, so if the version is different I communicate it with a message and theoretically I can also do it then go directly to the app file on the store to update it? does it exist as a function? Thank you
