hi

since the last update i have some issues with b4i that are very frustrating

when i compile my project i dont get any install command. nothing happens.
only the b4i bridge exit to home screen but no install command is showing.

i have no debug build installed on my phone i removed all. i have only store builds on my phone.
it seems like i have to remove the app (that is installed on my phone) and the the compile will show an install command but if i do it all my data will be lost.

can i do something against that?

thanx ilan

i am using firebase and if i want to do that i will need to create for each app 2 different json files and also have all those duplicates on my firebase console.
this is something i would like to avoid.

what i have noticed is that if you have your app installed from the app store and then try to rebuild it via b4i it will not overwrite the store version.
so you have first to remove it from your device and then build your app.
the problem all data will be lost and i need it.

You cannot install app with same package name, signed with different cert. If the package and cert match, iOS will overwrite app with the new one.
On Android (B4a) you can use different Firebase JSONs, by changing file name in manifest. I still don't have any app on iOS with Firebase implemented, so I don't know how you can use two different JSON in B4i.

yes if appstore bersion is there b4i doesnt install it. Maybe incrementing the version solves it ? if store version is 1.0.4 try 1.0.5 maybe ? I never tried it .
