Just put the app on a server, and also put up a file with one number in it, the latest version of your app. Occassionally, download the file and if the version number doesn't match the app version number, then popup a dialog box, and tell the user there is an update. When they click ok, download the app.

I am developing an Android application for a customer. I want to be able to provide them (no one else) incremental updates but I am not clear what the procedure should be. I don't want them to have to install development tools or root their phone. These are non technical folks who would have no idea how to accomplish root a phone or use a command line interface. When I develop iPhone applications for them this was easy. They just give me the device UDID and I send them a binary that can be drag and dropped into iTunes. How is this done on Android. I have tried loading the application from a web server but the devices says it is not allowed to be loaded because of security reasons. In setting->Applications there is no menu option to "Allow Unknown sources". Thank your for any help you can provide on this matter.
