iTunes可以提供app的版本信息，主要通过appid获取，如 http://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=946449501，使用时只需要到iTunes查找自己的appid，修改成自己的appid即可
使用HTTP模式读取此链接可以获取app信息的json字符串
贴出部分代码
-(void)checkVersion
{
ASIFormDataRequest *request = [ASIFormDataRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:strURL]];//strURL为你的appid地址
[request setRequestMethod:@"POST"];
[request setDelegate:self];
[request startAsynchronous];
} -(void)requestFinished:(ASIHTTPRequest *)request
{
NSString *recStr = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:request.responseData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
recStr = [recStr stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];//返回的字符串有前面有很多换行符，需要去除一下
NSDictionary *resultDic = [JSONHelper DeserializerDictionary:recStr];//jsonhelper是我封装的json解析类，你可以使用自己方式解析 NSArray *infoArray = [resultDic objectForKey:@"results"];
if (infoArray.count > 0) { NSDictionary* releaseInfo =[infoArray objectAtIndex:0];
NSString* appStoreVersion = [releaseInfo objectForKey:@"version"];
NSDictionary *infoDic = [[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary];
NSString *currentVersion = [infoDic objectForKey:@"CFBundleShortVersionString"]; NSArray *curVerArr = [currentVersion componentsSeparatedByString:@"."];
NSArray *appstoreVerArr = [appStoreVersion componentsSeparatedByString:@"."];
BOOL needUpdate = NO;
//比较版本号大小
int maxv = (int)MAX(curVerArr.count, appstoreVerArr.count);
int cver = 0;
int aver = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < maxv; i++) {
if (appstoreVerArr.count > i) {
aver = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",appstoreVerArr[i]].intValue;
}
else{
aver = 0;
}
if (curVerArr.count > i) {
cver = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",curVerArr[i]].intValue;
}
else{
cver = 0;
}
if (aver > cver) {
needUpdate = YES;
break;
}
} //如果有可用的更新
if (needUpdate){ trackViewURL = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:[releaseInfo objectForKey:@"trackViewUrl"]];//trackViewURL临时变量存储app下载地址，可以让app跳转到appstore
UIAlertView* alertview =[[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"版本升级" message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"发现有新版本，是否升级？"] delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"暂不升级" otherButtonTitles:@"马上升级", nil];
[alertview show]; } }
} - (void)alertView:(UIAlertView *)alertView clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex
{
if (buttonIndex == 1){
UIApplication *application = [UIApplication sharedApplication];
[application openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:trackViewURL]];
}
