So, if you ship an app with a set of features, and then make any change at all in your control panel, the user will be prompted for a refresh. That's just how buzztouch works. You can disable the refresh by taking the app offline, but then you have to provide any updates via a new version of the app. Mark Comments Hi Dana, Keep in mind that unless the configuration file in your published app exactly matches the configuration file on the buzztouch server (or your BT Server), then a refresh will occur.
