Question 1

How to use AppVersionMonitor with SwiftUI?

Accepted Answer

Since AppVersionMonitor is designed for UIKit, integrate it in the AppDelegate or use a custom initializer in SwiftUI's App entry point, as the README doesn't provide SwiftUI-specific examples.

Question 2

AppVersionMonitor vs. manually tracking versions in UserDefaults?

Accepted Answer

AppVersionMonitor automates state detection and history, reducing errors and boilerplate code, while manual methods require more setup and lack built-in semantic version comparisons.

Question 3

How to handle data migration after an upgrade?

Accepted Answer

Use the .Upgraded case in the state switch to trigger migration logic, ensuring it runs only when needed, as shown in the README example with previousVersion.

Question 4

Can AppVersionMonitor track TestFlight or beta versions?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if the version string follows semantic versioning, it can track any marketing version, but it doesn't differentiate between release channels without customization.

Question 5

Is there a way to customize how AppVersionMonitor stores version history?

Accepted Answer

The README doesn't mention customization options; it likely uses UserDefaults internally, so you'd need to extend the library or fork it for custom storage solutions.

Question 6

How to test AppVersionMonitor in unit tests?

Accepted Answer

You can mock version strings or use dependency injection, but the library lacks built-in testing utilities, requiring manual setup of test environments.
