To check if newer a version of Angular is available, you can call below method from any component, or just copy the IsNewerVersionAvailable method in app.component.

export class DataService {
    
    constructor(private http: HttpClient, private swUpdate: SwUpdate) { }

    private available: boolean = false;
 
    IsNewerVersionAvailable() {
        if (this.swUpdate.isEnabled) {
            this.swUpdate.available.subscribe(() => {
                this.available = true;
            });
            console.log(this.available);
        }
        return this.available;
    }    
}
