    a little note to 1.: it's working but I think it's discouraged since I get a warning telling me The android:versionName cannot be a resource url, it must be a literal string

    What I did is leave the manifest version name untouched (but update it whenever a new release) and use the string.xml to store the value that I'll be using across the app.

    For AndroidStudio, the manifest versionName is override by the one set in build.gradle file
