Lack of management for mobile apps (eg. IFS MWO Maintenance)

We have come to discover that we have no meaningful way to manage the roll-out of the mobile app IFS MWO Maintenance. Since the iOS version comes from the Apple Store and the Windows version comes from the Microsoft App store, they just appear randomly on devices without any chance to vet the apps and keep all devices on the same version. Nor is there any mechanism in either store or from IFS directly to get any advance notification of upcoming version releases. There also appears to be no way of reviewing version releases with the associated release dates (not as important but still could be helpful if something breaks). I guess the assumption from all parties in this process is that newer is always better, but what if it is not? By the time we discover a bug, many of our devices will have the new release with no way to back-level the version. Does anyone else out there see this a potentially problematic?
