Apps Updating existing androdapp on store - not to push updates to end user

[karthikkondapaneni]

i have an android application which has number of downloads . I want to update the app with some major fixes and updates . Because of this update, end user may get failed authentication and need to reenter his credentials which I dont like. At the same time i want keep same package name to keep downloads and app reputation on playstore.

So how can i achive these
1.update android app on playstore which will not push automatic updates even if end user turn-on autoupdate in settings .

1. Previous app downloads and userfeedback should be there

So this way old users still continue using old version and any new users who download app from playstore will enjoy new app .

Thank you
