Google Play push notification for app update available is not sent. Am I missing something?
<p>I had published an app on Google Play. According to me I need to change the versioncode in the gradle file everytime I upload the new APK and from there, Google Play does the job of notifying the users about an available update. I am in touch with many real world users who say they never got a notification about app update despite the several updates I had published to the original app. I know that there are certain device level play-store settings such as "Update app only on wi-fi" etc. and I've verified all such combinations of scenarios. I still believe that all the users are not notified about the new version available. So my questions are</p>

<p><strong>1) Am I missing anything in the first place?</strong></p>

<p><strong>2) What are my options to make sure the user gets notified about the available update?</strong></p>
