iOS- Ways to launch application

Question

I have an on-air application and I block some old version (must to update).

I noticed that an old version (version I blocked) don't have "must upgrade" appear.

To solve that issue, in thought all the ways to launch my application:

1. Tap the app icon
2. Schemas (Url)
3. Push notifications

Are there any other ways?

Answer 1

From what you're asking - those are the only ways to launch an app from an iOS device. Just update the app to a new version and users will get notified in the App Store of the new update. I don;t see how you can prevent the current app from running -- unless you are using a web service in the current app that you could disable in some way, prevent the app from functioning. But that sounds like a horrible idea.
