I doubt it. It probably will react the same way it already does, just in a more convenient spot to find now than searching in settings. When I search for updates now from the settings, it always "Scans" and rarely finds an update, even if there are some. I'm anticipating same results now, just having a menu button now. .... which is one shortcut I actually didn't need, but maybe some will like it, who knows.
