App Updates

Checking for updates

Two entry points:

• Manual: Settings → Appearance & About → "Check for updates"
• Automatic: once every 24 hours after startup; when an installable new version is found, a green dot appears on the version number at the bottom-left

Channels

The default is "follow current build": if your version has a pre-release suffix (such as 1.0.0-beta.2) you automatically follow the Beta line; a plain version number follows Stable. You can also pin Stable or Beta in Settings.

One-click update

Clicking "Update now" in the dialog runs: download the package → verify its signature → prompt to restart. The restart is handled silently by the official installer, and your settings and task data are preserved.

• Downloads try several sources (mirrors first, official as fallback) and switch automatically on failure
• Packages are signature-checked; a failed check is never installed
• Installation waits while a conversion task is running

Skip this version

The dialog lets you skip the current version: no more reminders until a newer version appears. Checking manually still shows it.

Portable edition

The portable build does not support in-app updates yet; the dialog points to the release page for a manual replacement.

FAQ

• No green dot? It only appears when an installable new version is found. No network, missing assets on the release, or a skipped version — no dot.
• Update failed? Your installed version is untouched. The next launch reports what happened last time; retry as suggested.
• Download slow? Downloads switch between sources automatically; you can also grab the installer from the release page.
