If you are using cordova-cli, install with:

cordova plugin add https://github.com/whiteoctober/cordova-plugin-app-version.git

With a plain plugman, you should be able to install with something like:

If you are using jQuery or AngularJS, promise style is supported. Use something like:

cordova.getAppVersion.getVersionNumber().then(function (version) {
    $('.version').text(version);
});

If not, pass a callback function:

cordova.getAppVersion.getVersionNumber(function (version) {
    alert(version);
});

In addition to the version number you can also retrieve other details about your application:

Returns the name of the app. E.g. "My Awesome App"

Returns the package name of the app - the reversed domain name app identifier like com.example.myawesomeapp

Returns the build identifier of the app

Returns the version number of the app
