use-expo-updates v1.0.3

useExpoUpdates

Description

Expo has a standalone expo-updates module, however it only updates if a user force restarts their app.

This hook sets a listener on AppState to check for updates every time a user opens their app to ensure that the app is always up to date, and that updates are mandatory every time.

Installation

In your expo project, run:

yarn add use-expo-updates

Then, in your root file, add the hook at the top of your component:

import useExpoUpdates from 'use-expo-updates';

const App = () => {
  useExpoUpdates();
  ...
}
