Hi Jason,
The version of the app in MATLAB App Designer can't be accessed directly with a property.
As a workaround, you can have a file called VersionNumber.txt in your folder in which you can store the version number. You can then read the file using the function 'fileread' to access the version number.
You can refer to the following documentation to learn more about the function 'fileread':

Thanks for your reply Nick, but unfortunately that wont work for me. I use compiled versions of my GUIs on seperate PC's with different drive structure, so having a single path to read a file won't work.
Its a shame we can't access it within Matlab
Thanks
Jason
