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On google developer console it is published and all old versions are unpublished but on Google Play Store it is still showing old version.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 already clear play store cached and data but still showing old app version don't know why.
I have checked, on all device showing old version.
Here is snapshot for google developer console
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.

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.
Use Android In-app updates it will update the app from within the app without going to Google Play store
Now the newstips update for android is delayed all together. It was uploading for me day and half ago then when I went to play it was the same old version so I put in a slip and they still haven't explained to me this issue, I had to find out myself on facebook its
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On google developer console it is published and all old versions are unpublished but on Google Play Store it is still showing old version.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'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...
I'm trying to update an app in the google play store.
The google developer FAQ says it can take up to 24 hours after publishing before it's visable.
I updated an apk and the store description 26+ hours ago, then again about 22 hours ago and another new version around 6 hours ago. But when I visit the store I still see an old version from 3 days ago and the old description.
When I release new versions in such a short period, does it mean the checking/review will be reset and only the last one will be published, or will every version be available in the submitted order when they are ready?
Update:
It's now "on the line". It seems when you push updates very fast they will not be shown, because the review process will always start from the beginning. So you should consider to wait after every update until it's shown. Or Google just had some problems these days.
It looks google might have introduced new internal system of updating new version. My app was published 2 days ago but still not showing the latest version in play store, though I got email that my update is live within 1 hour.
Check again your Google Play Developer Console.
Be sure your app is supported in your device where you are expecting to see your app, and STATUS is in Prod.
Older .apk´s must be Unpublised
I had this situation my app had an error and my status was "Unpublished"
I have an app on google play.
I updated the app to 1.0.1, and i can check it is updated on google publish website.
But in my phones and in google play the app is still on 1.0 and can't be updated.
How many time need google to publish my update on google play?
thanks
Solved, it takes about two hours, sometimes three hours
If you want your application published faster. You should publish as alpha before. Publishing as alpha is necessary for testing In App Billing and no one will see your application on alpha except your testers. When it comes to publish on production (normal publishing everyone can see this version), you should just upgrade from alpha to production and that’s it. Your application will be live on 10 minutes or less.
Google says it may take them up to 7 days or longer to review apps submitted to the Play Store from certain developers.
