I have pushed a new version of my app.
On google developer console it is published and all old versions are unpublished but on Google Play Store it is still showing old version. I uploaded the app 2days before so it should have been updated and on developer console, it is showing as updated.
I already clear play store cached and data but still showing old app version don't know why.
I have checked, on all devices showing old versions. does anyone know why this is happening??
I had chat with google support and as per chat they have made some changes to the review process, so it may take more time to review the app thoroughly.
they also said that it usually takes a few hours and up to a few days, depends on different circumstances.
also, they provided the link for refrence
I thought to post it as an answer as if this happens with someone so this would be helpful.
I have also faced this issue. It takes some time to show your app new version on Play Store. They implement it on regional based. So don't worry it will be available in a few hours.

I have an app that check the version in-app. If we deploy a new app together with the backend, the app will announce that the user is using the old version of the app, and redirect to google play to update the new released version. Hence they cannot use the app
But the problem occurs when Google Play not showing the latest version unless I clear the cache of google play.
Is there any way I can make google display the new version when redirecting to Google Play (by adding a query flags into the Google Play url or something like that to make Google Play show the latest version?)
Having the users waiting until Google Play show the correct version is not a good practice, as they can't use the app in the mean time. But guiding them to clear google play cache maybe a problem with elderly or non-tech users.
Thank you guys for your time.

App is live after 13 days, I have contact to google support center and also they have answer for this delay. But It is now clear that it may take any time to be live on play store. I was worried because this was happen first time during my 4 years career.
You have just to wait a little bit. It may take some days until you see the newest version in google play store.
Once you push it live from the publishing interface, it will take a max 2/3 hours to be live to consumers. Unlike iTunes, Google review does not involve any human testing so it is much quicker.

My android app is not being updated on the Google Play Store
For a new app you need to have patience. It may take anything from 2 days to a week. There will be reviews and automated policy checks etc happening after which it will be available on store.
By republishing you just restarted the whole process.
Usual process may take maximum one week. Here only you can do is wait till they respond.
The chances are there the app may be rejected for the update, due to some technical reason. Keep on checking the status change. Also create a query to Google.
I've developed an application and release it on google market with version 3.0. Later i've done some modification in it and upload new version(3.1) on market. To do this i've first deactivate old version and then upload this new version. Now, when i try to update app in my device (which is having 3.0 version app), i open app page in play store and shocked, because play store page display "OPEN" button inplace of "UPDATE".
Please suggest me the reason for this.
Thanks in advance.
How much time has it been when you uploaded the version 3.1 app?
Because it takes some time for google servers to upload the new version to the play store. Pay attention to the instructions, they are not as same as terms and conditions.
Update your apps documentation:
App updates take some time to be delivered to existing users. If you’ve submitted an update that hasn’t showed up on Google Play, please wait at least 24 hours before contacting our support team.
That also works for updates of course.
Nothing is instant at such a large scale you know...
Before, I deployed an App on the Google Play market. After several months, there are like 100 users are using it. Recently, I found a bug in that version of App, so I created a fixed version and push it to my Google Play Console.
However, I noticed some users are still using the old version. Is there anyway that I can notice those users that "there is a serious bug in that version, please update it to the latest one"?
I am sorry but there is no way you can notify them. Google will notify them of the new version of your app but they can chose not to update it.
Like A-C said, you should implement a notification system to inform them of this, i would suggest using http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/index.html
But this will only help you with your next versions...
