Update "refresh message" to user

Hi!

In my app, the user is keeping a page on the TV and is almost never refreshed. So when I push an update, it’s often not reflected for the user on that page. Is there a way to notify the user that the page should be refreshed? Something like a banner on top or something.

While writing this I’m getting the idea to:

• Keeping a variable on the page with the version number of the app
• When a data update with live socket is done, it also gets the latest version number of the app.
• A condition to show a banner to refresh, if the version number of the app is not equal to the variable.
• Setting the variable with the latest version app on page load so that it hides the banner.

Funny that the idea comes when writing it down, so I guess I will try this out now. Just leaving this in case someone has a better idea on how to approach this.
