But I really can't understand, why the developers aren't integrating any auto-update functionality. I'm macOS user and nearly every relevant app has it's updater. It saves a lot of time to keep up-2-date. No need for investing 3-5 extra minutes on waiting, overwriting, keeping the eyes on process bars and confirm every little step.

Every time I put new epubs on my Kobo, Calibre is offering me a new release. However, I think it's good to get the latest issues fixed and get the newest features. But I don't have time to read the change log, if those infos are located on a different location at the website. In addition to that, I don't know what my current version number is installed. I need to check this – every single time – to keep track on all the changes and the "value" of an update.

PLEASE guys, I really like to see an auto-updater like this one:

What do you think?

Thanks in advance!
Why doesn’t calibre have an automatic update?
