How to force update a mobile app when a new version is available?

This is one of the frequently asked questions by mobile developers. And still, we find it helpful to share our experience and recommendation for this case.

First of all, let’s understand the problem. Many users may argue that you need to release the new version and App Store and Google Play will handle the distribution for all users. And users will automatically get new updates installed if the appropriate settings are ON. While in most cases this is true and you should not force your users to upgrade to every new version, there still can be cases when you have to get rid of older versions.
