Possibly one of the most frustrating things about Glide is the inability to decide when I want to push a new version of my app. Constant updating may seem sexy at first, but once you have lots of users, you don’t want them to see your half-assed work on display, it makes a very bad impression. Sometimes it can take a bit of time to get it working/looking the way you want and OOPS! here it is already live. It’s unheard of when it comes to any type of software/app development to have no control what so ever on when new version is being released. I would suggest to allow us to have 2 buttons: Pause: When clicked, the app will not get updated for users, this button can then be clicked again to allow regular updates. Push: When clicked, a new version of the app is immediately released. This will allow us to see our changes and to fix issues quickly without having to wonder when’s the next update. Thoughts? @david @Jeff_Hager

If I recall right they want to offer something like this at some point in the future, sort of an edit mode & publish for an article.

[image] Making Edits to Published App Glide FAQs We plan to offer this in the next few months (you will be able to make changes that only go live when you click ‘Update’ or ‘Publish’)

Yes, it will make a big difference !!!

@david This would be awesome! Any updates on this feature?
