Help - Enforce the new version to users

Hello everyone!

I'm new to PowerApp so any help would be much appreciated 🙂

I have an app that I'm constantly doing updates on, because it is new and is used by a lot of people that suggest several improvements. But when I alter a feature or fix a bug and publish the newest version, some people still see the old version until hitting refresh. 

Right now I'm using a method were I manually put a stamp in every version published. When the user opens the app I automatically compare the stamp on the user app with the stamp of the newest version. If it's not the same, I redirect the user to a new page kindly asking to refresh the browser. 

This was the best solution that I could find, but wanted to know if you guys have a better one!
Also, is there a way to automatically get the version that the user is using? Because stamping every published version by hand can be prone to errors... 

Thank you so much 🙂
