Pushed out an update to universal link to our app.

I let some business people know. We have a url out there that if they don't have the app installed it redirects to the app store.

The user was redirected to the app store. He said he clicked on the update. (Manually updated?)
Trying the universal link didn't take him to the app. He ended up reinstalled the app then it started to work.

Trying to find info about this. Google let me to this site.
https://docs.branch.io/pages/deep-linking/universal-links/

Which says

iOS does not re-scrape the apple-app-site-association file unless you delete and reinstall the app. (The only exception to this is App Store updates. iOS does rescrape on every update. This means that when users update to a version of your app with the applinks entitlement, Universal Links will start working for them.)

Does that mean if Apple pushes the update down, then it would update the apple-app-site-association file? But if the user manually updates it doesn't happen?

Apple is cool.
