Each app has its own number

The iPhone and Android apps each have their own version number. The car screen app has its own.

Only versions that have been sent

A version appears here once it has been sent to the store, with its date. Anything still in the works isn’t listed.

What about the server?

Improvements to the Sparks server reach all three apps without an update. They aren’t listed here.
