Can new content be refreshed to an app?

Is there a way of refreshing the content of the display group instead of having to release new builds of the application like most apps tend to utilize with dragging the entire page down to refresh [import]uid: 87730 topic_id: 35407 reply_id: 335407[/import]

Hi @jazzarssoul.

Your question is very broad and will be difficult to really discuss, but yes, in most cases there are ways to update the content, but the discussion of how really depends on the data and what you are wanting to update.

say for example you’re providing content for viewing by a particular audience of yours even if it’s just text that can be refreshed,

does this require for you to link a website to corona? [import]uid: 87730 topic_id: 35407 reply_id: 140719[/import]

is the easiest method to link the app to a site and refresh the content? [import]uid: 87730 topic_id: 35407 reply_id: 140726[/import]

Again, it’s up to you. Where is the content? How is it being updated? Without knowing what your data is, where it originates or how it’s being manipulated its going to be hard to answer this.

One example: you want to show an RSS feed in a TableView. You will want to download the RSS feed, parse it into data your app can use and load up the tableView. You can do something in your app that will go out, download the latest RSS feed and then you do your thing to it.

Another example, maybe you’re building an adventure game and you want to store your hints. Your program can generate and save those hints to a local database and your refresh could read that database and load up your display with information.

There are way too many choices and options without knowing more.
