Auto-Update

The Nouto desktop app checks for updates on GitHub Releases. When a new version is available, an update banner appears in the app.

  1. On startup, Nouto checks GitHub Releases for a newer version.
  2. If an update is available, a banner appears at the top of the window with the new version number.
  3. Click Install and Restart to download and apply the update.
  4. Nouto restarts with the new version.

Updates are verified using signed manifests to ensure integrity. The app only installs updates that pass signature verification.

The app checks for updates once per launch. There is no background polling while the app is running. Close and reopen Nouto to check again.

Auto-update is available on Windows, macOS, and Linux. The update mechanism uses Tauri’s built-in updater plugin, which downloads platform-specific installers from the GitHub release.

You can dismiss the update banner without installing. The banner will reappear on the next launch until the update is applied.
