Auto-update of Android app, without asking a user

Good day,

How it's possible to perform auto-update of Android app, without asking a user?

App is not in Google Play.

Best regards.

FYI, i just read about this at http://blog.vivekpanyam.com/evolve-seamlessly-deploy-android-apps-to-users/?hn

Evolve is a library for Android Developers that lets them deploy new versions of an app without going through Google Play or asking users to download an update. It works by using reflection and dynamic bytecode generation to "trick" Android into running new code.

Also, the solution at Update an Android app (without Google Play) seems to allow updating Apps without a Play store.

You cannot silently install applications on an unrooted Stock Android device for security reasons. It is even clearly stated by Dianne (a Google Employee) here.
