Mobile app version management is particularly important when it comes to security and compatibility. This project was born from the urgency of needing a tool like this. This tool makes it easy for mobile developers to flag app versions so that users will stop using them. Having this sort of control is helpful and useful at some point in the life of a mobile app.
