Remote config

Remote config enables us to do the following with the mobile apps, without needing to release a new version:

  • Globally turn off the whole app (i.e. kill switch)
  • Turn off individual features
  • Force users to update their app if they are running too low a version
  • Recommend (but not force) users to update their app if they are running too low a version
  • Configure other general parameters for the app

Runbook

Instructions for updating remote config (the runbook) is available here
