Updates

Guidepost checks for updates in the background and downloads them for you. An update installs when you quit Guidepost or click Relaunch now, never in the middle of a service.

A banner says, for example, “Guidepost 1.1 is ready. It installs when you relaunch, never during a service.”

  • Relaunch now installs the update and reopens Guidepost.
  • What’s New shows what changed.
  • Later dismisses the banner. The update installs the next time you quit.

Update notices appear after you end live.

Choose Guidepost › Check for Updates…, or click Check for app updates in Settings › License & About. Guidepost tells you whether you’re up to date.

To stop automatic checks, turn off Check for updates automatically in Settings › General.

Choose Help › What’s New to see the changes in the version you’re using.

Occasionally a new version of Guidepost needs a newer version of macOS. Guidepost tells you when that’s the case, and keeps working on the version you have.
