Mobile and TV App Automatic Updates
Updated over 6 months ago

All software requires updates! Things like maintenance, bug fixes, performance improvements, new features, security enhancements, optimized interfaces, etc. Software is always changing and improving, just like your business. Uscreen Mobile and TV apps are no different.

Uscreen provides regular app updates throughout the duration of your agreement. We want to keep your apps on the latest and greatest apps software versions. We handle all the technical details, so you can focus on your content and business.

How often does Uscreen update apps?

  • 📱 Mobile apps typically every 1-2 months

  • 📺 TV apps typically every 2-3 months

Why automatic updates?

Automatic updates ensure that you, and your end-users, have the latest and greatest apps, without having to spend time contacting Uscreen, or worrying about your software versions. Uscreen automatically updates your apps as we have new releases. We handle app store submission and publishing.

There is no preview period for these automatic updates. We eliminate the preview step to save time. We publish your updated apps to the app stores. And your end-users get these updates automatically if they allow the respective app stores to automatically update their devices, which most do!

What apps have automatic updates?

We are slowly rolling out automatic updates, as every platform, and app store, is a little different:

  • 📱 iOS and Android Mobile Apps: available now ✅

  • 📺 TV Apps: planned later. Until then please request a TV app update as needed.

Please note that automatic updates for iOS apps require a business account. Please convert your developer account to receive iOS automatic updates.

Can I request an update? Outside of automatic updates?

Yes! You should request an app update if you need to make changes to your app image assets, subscriptions, or your app store developer accounts.

Can I opt out of automatic updates?

You cannot opt out of automatic updates. Having your apps update automatically is a good way to ensure they are always equipped with the latest security features, improvements, and updates. This also helps to ensure that the respective app store receives regular app updates to prevent the removal of your apps.
