Just out of curiosity, can't they just force you to upgrade to the
latest server if you like to upgrade the app ?
And force you to upgrade the app if you want to upgrade to the latest
server ?
And show a user friendly message if the server version isn't
compatible.
They have pretty much already done this on the firmware/SBS/MySB
combination where you are forced to upgrade the firmware so it matches
SBS or MySB to ensure it works correctly and you are more or less
forced to upgrade SBS when they upgrade MySB.
It's probably easier for Logitech to synchronize this than third party
developers, I guess Logitech can always hold the SBS/MySB release until
Apple has reviewed the new app version and when Apple makes the new
version available in the AppStore Logitech release the new MySB and SBS
version to the public.
However, I do agree that it will be a bit more complicated than today
where they have more or less control of the versions used on each
device. Hopefully it results in that Logitech needs to be a bit more
careful when doing interface changes that aren't compatible in the
future.
