Handling mobile app updates

What exactly happens when I have clients upgrade to the next version of the app. Do I control what gets overwritten or is it a complete refresh of the app. For example if I already create a sqlLite DB does it get overwritten. Depending on how updates are performed I would also like to know if I will break anything appery.io related if I decide to dynamically inject jquery mobile controls into a page rather than statically creating the ui through appery.io

Hello Miguel,

Do I control what gets overwritten or is it a complete refresh of the app.

It completely refreshes the app, but localstorage variables should be available.

if I decide to dynamically inject jquery mobile controls

You will not be able to work with mapping in/out for this component and adding events and actions should be done programmaticaly.

Just to clarify... Local Storage variables are the only forms of data potentially available after an app update. So any settings related information should be saved in local storage. SQlite will be overwritten and any files use for settings/storage will need to be recreated? I just want to make sure that I code the app correctly for updates.

Miguel, Yes, local storage, will be removed with the app, update will not corrupt data.
