Updating enpass

[nonsibicunctis]

 

Include a clear menu option for updating enpass to the latest version on desktop and mobile.  Also, provide an option for auto update or manual update.  Even better than a menu option would be to include it on the About page.

You can check for updates in the desktop app by going to Hamburger Menu > File > Help > Check for Update.

Enpass is updated by the store you got it from, like Google Play, Apple App Store or the Microsoft Store. On Linux it is done through your package manager. So all such an option can do is link you to the updates page of whatever store you're using, and automatic updates are controlled by the settings of that store.

Oh, excuse me for expressing my view.  I did not obtain Enpass from a 'Store' but from its own site, several years ago.

In addition, although it perhaps would not occur to you, some of us seek minimisation of IT applications, indeed it is one of the attractions of Enpass over other password managers, as has been its not-for-profit and open access origins.

My view is that such an option is best placed within the application, hence its results controlled by the development team and accessible, clearly, quickly and directly.

Your continuing attitude of condescension to others who, perhaps, do not have skills or knowledge echoing your own or have other needs, wishes or ways of working, are neither appropriate or pleasant.

By all means, offer your views as is this forum facilitates.  I imagine that you have much of value to offer.  However, you could offer it without the arrogance or demeaning of those who know less than you, work differently or have fewer skills and greater confusion with less obvious access to particular features.

I have no idea what it is that you which to portray by your grotesque avatar/profile picture but it is certainly neither appealing or suggestive of friendly and/or helpful communication.

We're glad that response was helpful, and we remain committed to improving with every release based on user feedback.

Yeah, especially the part where he attacked my personality based on my profile picture was very helpful. 🙄

I'm using Enpass on all three platforms via store / package manager and really wasn't aware there is also a website download. However, when talking about "minimisation of IT applications", I don't see how having a standalone updater for everything is minimalistic. I'd rather call it overhead if the platform has a built-in general install and update service.

Bachsau, I did *not* attach your personality at all, let alone "based on my (your) profile picture.  My comment about that image was very clearly a remark relating to the type of response likely to be evoked by the image vis. "I have no idea what it is that you which to portray by your grotesque avatar/profile picture but it is certainly neither appealing or suggestive of friendly and/or helpful communication."
