Check for update, or close and open the app.

Shows a notification prompting the user to click to update. Performs update in the background.

Expected behaviour

After being prompted to update display some sort of indicator showing that the update is in progress.

This is not a bug, more of a feature request. I understand if this is not a priority right now. Thanks anyway for this amazing app!

The fix is to notify when the update is done downloading instead of just when it鈥檚 available. That way we can just notify and restart right away without the need for a progress indicator.

@sindresorhus I would like to work on this but it seems like this notification already exists kap#master? Is there more work that needs to be done?

We've implemented automatic background updates, which are applied when relaunching the app.
