It's important to keep your Nowsta apps up to date to ensure that your apps have the latest updates, bug fixes, and performance enhancements to provide you with a smoother and more reliable user experience.

Nowsta typically releases new updates quite often, so we recommend turning on auto-update to ensure compatibility with newer operating systems, gain access to new features, and maintain app stability. By doing so, you won't have to check for updates manually and can enjoy the benefits of having up-to-date apps seamlessly.
