"Update your application" system

[hawkbee1]

For security reason it's important to keep Altme up to date.
When app is launching it checks if current app version is < to last prod version. If that's the case we force user to update Altme.
In this case we should offer possibility of backing up credentials?
To Be Defined: Where and how are we storing info about last production version? Is there an official mechanism with the stores?

Check branch app_update later

I found some packages but all are doing web scrapping which means that the package breaks when UI changes occur or some changes occur in the website... We need to make one API to fetch the latest version, release notes, etc. By doing this it will be stable forever. The only extra step will be we need to update the API response every time we release the new version.
