I need a way to tell if the app being used by a user is a fresh new install (new user), or was a pre-existing user who updated.
The previous app version did not track UDID's, and didn't save anything (it just ran as a simple app).
Is there a way for an update to tell if the user previously installed the app? Even if that app didn't save anything into the documents folder, and the app didnt communicate with a server (UDID post)?
(id like to be able to offer bonus features to my existing loyal users who had already installed the original app and updated)
thanks!!
