Probably someone can me help me with the following constellation:

1. An App shall be pre installed on a phone by copying the apk file to the 
phone (e.g. via USB) and executing it

2. Updates of this App shall be done with the help of Google Playstore. 
Means a new version is uploaded to the developer account into the 
productive environment which shall be automatically installed on all 
compatible devices (if the devices are correctly configured).

3. In investigations it has been turned out so far that Playstore doesn't 
update the App automatically as long as it hasn't been installed using 
Playstore. It seems to be that the Playstore App doesn't know about the 
already manual installed App on the phone. 

4. But if you start the Playstore app, search for the App and open the 
result it offers to update the App using the "Update" button. 

Does someone know if and how the Playstore App connects the own pre 
installated App on the phone and the uploaded in the Google Developer
 account? 

Has someone experience with that?
