How to open Ana left in MAUI - iOS application

Question

Hello Team,   

I want the user to force update the application.  So, Based on the below logic, I'm opening an alert with an update option in it. When I click on the update. It is navigating to the Appstore. But when I click on the backbutton on the top left corner the app is being crashed.

     MainThread.BeginInvokeOnMainThread(() =>
			{
				string msg = "A new version of this application is available. " +
					"Please update to the new version now.";
				UIAlertController dlg = UIAlertController.Create("Update Available", msg
					, UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert);
				// this was a remote Notification
				dlg.AddAction(UIAlertAction.Create("Update", UIAlertActionStyle.Default, x =>
				{
					UIApplication.SharedApplication.OpenUrl(new NSUrl(appSpecificStoreLink),
						new NSDictionary() { },
						null);
					Thread.Sleep(100);
                    Thread.CurrentThread.Interrupt();
                }));
				UIWindow window = UIApplication.SharedApplication.KeyWindow;
				window.RootViewController.PresentViewController(dlg, true, null);
			});

 

If I had removed

        Thread.CurrentThread.Interrupt();

user will come back to the application from the appstore and no crashing is happing but user can able to access the application. as per my requirement. I want to restrict the user in the landing page itself.

Thanks

Hello,

After clicking the alert, it will dismiss. It's the default behavior on iOS platform. If it is possible, you could try to display another alert when the page returns back.
