Feature request: Update Manger

velteyn · 03-10-2018, 06:15 AM

Hello all,
first and foremost thank you for this great project. I use it daily and i see that the project is continuing to develop any week.

For a user point of view like me It would like to suggest a built in "UPDATE MANAGER" . I often see great upgrades to the project, but the tedious thing is to have to always turn off the program go to the web site, download the new upgraded software, install it , restart the program..
I think that this could be automated in some way...
For example firexfox auto downloads the next upgrade silently, then in the next day of use , before start, it auto upgrade itself and then starts..

What do you think ?

This idea has been suggested and discussed in these forums numerous times. So many in fact there is an entry in the FAQ covering this question.

Why doesn’t calibre have an automatic update?
