Will the AppStore reject my application if I force the user to upgrade to a newer version available in the appstore

I know that there are many ways to get the user to update the application. My question is that the Appstore will reject my application if my application does not allow the user to use it until it updates the application.

NO. Your application will not be rejected if it forces the user to update. We have been doing this for the past 4 years (application for the financial sector). Whenever we discover a vulnerability in an application or enable a major security update, we stop the old version and force users to download a new one.

However, it will be a good user interface if you tell the user why you force them to update.

May be. This person published a denial of this. However, many applications have done this for many years without deviations. Thus, either Apple becomes more sensitive to this, or this application implemented the update requirement in a really unfriendly way.
