IOS app, programmatically get build version

iosobjective c

Is there a way to programmatically get the build version of my app? I need to be able to detect when the user has updated the app through the AppStore, in order to execute some code for adjustments

The value you set in the Xcode target summary's "Version" field is in here:

Swift 3

let version = Bundle.main.infoDictionary?["CFBundleShortVersionString"] as! String

ObjC

NSString *version = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary] objectForKey:@"CFBundleShortVersionString"];

Swift 2

let version = NSBundle.mainBundle().infoDictionary?["CFBundleShortVersionString"] as! String

and the "Build":

Swift 3

let build = Bundle.main.infoDictionary?[kCFBundleVersionKey as String] as? String

ObjC

NSString *build = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary] objectForKey:(NSString *)kCFBundleVersionKey];

Swift 2

let build = NSBundle.mainBundle().infoDictionary?[kCFBundleVersionKey as String] as! String
