Any specific rule for assigning VersionName in Android?

I have updated android app 7 times, but so far I assign as VersionName

per my desire. But now I want to know if there is any specific rule or method to assign VersionName

for an Android app.

Please give me a quick summary if there is anything in there.

Not quite the rules, but recommendations:

  • Since it is only visible to the user, it can be any string.

  • But like almost all applications, it is better to follow the major.minor.point format .



eg:

1.0.0 - 1.0.1 for bug fixes

1.0.0 to 1.2.0 for any new feature

1.0.0 to 2.0.0 for major design changes like support for tables, etc.

You already know which version, now I'm talking about Android. On Android, if you upgrade your version, then your old database will be deleted and the onUpgrade () method is called if you used the database in your application. Likewise, changing the version updates many things. Typically, developers scale up the version by adding new functionality. And if you update your app on mobile, then the old apk will be deleted and the new one will be installed.
