App & Updates under APPLICATION in the Settings drawer shows the build you are running and whether a newer progressive web app (PWA) version is ready. Any signed-in user can open this section — no admin permissions required.
Please note:
- Applying an update reloads the page. Save open forms or drafts before clicking Update now.
- Check for updates confirms you are current; it does not force a server-side deployment. Your administrator controls when new builds roll out.
Version and status
The screen displays Current version (for example 1.2.3) and a status badge:
| Badge | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Up to date | Service worker matches the latest cached build |
| Update available | A newer build was detected; apply when convenient |
When an update is available, Update now replaces the Check for updates button.
Apply or check manually
- Open Settings → App & Updates
- If you see Update available, click Update now — the app reloads with the new service worker
- If you are up to date, click Check for updates to poll for a newer build
Automatic background checks may also surface the amber Update available badge without visiting this screen.

When to use this
- After your team announces a release and you still see old UI behavior
- When a critical fix was deployed and you want to skip waiting for a background refresh
- To confirm which version you are on when reporting a bug
