How do I update persistent data after publishing the app?

Question

As of now, my app contains an array and the user can manipulate the order of items in it by dispatching actions. I'm using redux persist and even if I directly change the array elements by editing the source file, the array does not update unless I clear the app cache. What are my options to update this kind of persistent data after I publish it to the store without forcing users to clear the cache?

What are you looking for is migrations. How it works:

1. Load user's previous state from local storage on app start
2. Update fields you need

Here is a setup example
