Update apk file on Google Play
I had the same issue when I started my app but since kivy has no solution for this I tried to create a directory outside my app directory in android with a simple os.mkdir('../##') and I put all the files there. Hope this helps!
I want to publish an Android application that I have developed but have a minor concern.
The application will load with a database file (or sqlite3 file). If updates arise in the future and these updates are only targeting the application's functionality without the database structure, I wish to allow users to keep their saved entries in their sqlite3 files.
So what is the best practice to send updates? Compile the apk files with the new updated code only and without the database files? Or is there any other suggestion?
PS: I am not working with Java and Eclipse, but with python for Android and the Kivy platform which is an amazing new way for developing Android applications.
