When putting apps on apps source we can set the minimum platform version for which the app is compatible (Application property and dependencies in app.json). What we can't do is prevent customers moving to a higher version of BC. As long as my app compiles the platform can be updated. If it actually works is not guaranteed.

It would be great to have an option in 3rd party apps to prevent moving towards a higher version. This will help in scenario's like:

• 1st of april new major is released
• 2 - 3 months later 3rd party apps are fully tested and released
• When such happens the blocker can be rermoved.

The blocking mechanism could be a setting in app.json stating the max compatible version for this app.
