Do android scheduled jobs survive an app upgrade?

I would like to know whether Jobs scheduled using the JobScheduler Framework survive an app upgrade? I have a registered BroadcastReceiver listening to the 

MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED

intent. Do i need to reschedule a job in this case?

Does Android JobScheduler or GCM JobScheduler persist jobs after an app update?

The link above leads to a similar question but does not have an answer so kindly do not mark this as a duplicate.

    Currently it is not. As you can see in the issues of Firebase Job dispatcher (which internally uses same API), there is a issue opened "GooglePlayDriver: doesn't reschedule Jobs after App is updated".
