You install Local Transcriber once. After that, new versions install from inside the app.
- The app asks GitHub whether a newer version exists. It does this when you click Check for updates in Settings → App → Updates, and on every launch if you turn on Check for updates when the app starts. It sends nothing about you.
- When an update is available, a notice appears in the sidebar.
- Click Update & restart. The app downloads the update, verifies its signature, installs it and restarts.
Updates never install without your click. Installing is paused while you're recording or transcribing.

Versions before 0.1.2 don't have the updater yet. Install a newer version by hand once.
You can always download the newest installer from the website or GitHub Releases and install it over the old version. Your meetings and settings are kept.
