You don't have to second-guess that app update anymore as developers can now pull problematic releases.
- Google will allow app developers to easily halt the release of their apps on the Play Store.
- Developers currently have no easy way to stop the release of their apps in the event of a major bug or other significant problem.
- This would also make life easier for users, as they wouldn’t have to unwittingly download a problematic app update.
The Google Play Store allows users to seamlessly update their apps, but developers sometimes issue updates with significant bugs. Unfortunately, there’s no official way for them to stop this rollout, which means unaware users will continue to download the questionable update.
Thankfully, Google has confirmed on the Android Developers Blog that app developers will soon be able to stop app and update releases via the Play Console and publishing API. Google says this will allow developers to “stop the distribution of problematic versions to new users.”
