tell you something.

Explore the difference between an update running and knowing what happened.

Understanding an updateExample

Ready to review

An update is available

Example application · 2.4 → 2.5

Your decision comes first.

A clear starting point.

See the installed version, the available version and the source. An available update is an invitation to review, not permission to install.

How to read update results
Understanding an updateExample

Verification pending

Installer finished

Installed version has not yet been confirmed.

Recheck the evidence before calling it complete.

Finished isn’t always verified.

The installer has finished. That alone does not prove the new version is present. Keeping the two results separate makes the uncertainty visible.

Understanding an updateExample

Version confirmed

Expected version found

Example application · installed version 2.5

A result you can understand.

Confidence with a reason.

A fresh version check confirms the expected version. Now there is evidence behind the result, rather than a green tick based on an installer exit code.

How to read update results
Understanding an updateExample

Needs another check

Could not confirm the version

Previous information may be out of date.

Rechecking is different from reinstalling.

Uncertainty stays visible.

If a check cannot finish, the last known state is not a fresh result. The useful next step is to check again, not silently run the installer again.
