How to update an app after installing or reinstalling Code on the Go
Each time you install a new version or reinstall the current version of Code on the Go, a new cryptographic key is generated. Apps built with a previous installation use the old key, which means they cannot be updated using the new installation.
To fix this, uninstall the app you previously built from your device, open Code on the Go, and rebuild and reinstall the app. This will create the app with the new key that matches your current installation.
