I need to compare my app's version with the latest version from PlayStore/AppStore. I used react-native-version-check but it's not working properly for my app. Is there a way to call directly to the stores which will contain the version in the response? (using react native)

I implemented your scenario using a mixture of react-native-config and react-native-appstore-version-checker.
The installed app version I used react-native-config to create an app version variable that I retrieve with: Config.REACT_APP_VERSION
For the app store version, I used the react-native-appstore-version-checker module. The installation instructions worked great.
For my use-case, I wanted to do something different if the upgrade was a major or minor, so I then split the two app versions and did major/minor/build comparisons.
