Why do apps need constant updates?
Bug Fixing, Improvements, and Stable Performance
The aim of an update might be to fix bugs, but new features and bug fixes can be released together. The usual practice is to pay more attention to updates that keep the app more stable.
How often should apps be updated?
Generally speaking, a good number is 1-2 small improvements per month. By improvements, we mean minor upgrades, redesigns, and new features. Regular, incremental improvement is better that sporadic overhauls of the app. However, the frequency of app updates can differ depending on your goals and app's functionality.
Are app updates necessary?
Updating your apps to the latest version gives you access to the latest features and improves app security and stability. Important: If Google determines that an app update fixes a critical security vulnerability, we may make certain app updates.
