Set Update Channel to Production or Beta.

​
Where The Update Button Appears

When EnConvo detects a new version for your selected channel, an Update button can appear in:
  • Chat Window titlebar
  • SmartBar titlebar
Click Update to open the update flow. EnConvo will then show the available version and guide you through downloading, installing, and relaunching when needed.

​
When EnConvo Checks For Updates

EnConvo checks for updates when you open or show the surfaces where the update button can appear:
  • Chat Window
  • SmartBar
To avoid repeated network requests, EnConvo does not repeat the same background check more than once within 10 minutes.
Automatic update downloads are off by default. EnConvo can detect that an update exists and show the button before downloading the update.

​
Check Manually

Use the macOS menu bar item when you want to check immediately:
  1. Click the EnConvo menu bar icon.
  2. Choose Check for Updates.
  3. If a newer version is available for your current channel, follow the update prompt.
If no window appears, you may already be on the latest version for your selected channel.

​
Troubleshooting

Confirm Settings → General → Updates → Update Channel is set to Beta. Then open Chat Window or SmartBar again. EnConvo throttles background checks for 10 minutes, so wait a few minutes if you just checked.
Production only shows builds published to the stable channel. If the newest build is still beta-only, you will not see it until it is promoted to Production.
The update may already have been installed, dismissed, or no longer match your selected channel. Run Check for Updates from the menu bar to confirm.
Quit and reopen EnConvo, then run Check for Updates again. Also make sure your network can reach EnConvo’s release server.
