How updates work
FictionalPlayer checks a small JSON feed for your package, then opens a download page in the browser.
1
Check in Settings
Go to Settings → About & updates → Check now. Your installed version is shown as major.minor.build.
2
Feed per package
The app fetches latest.json for your OS channel — Windows, Snap, AppImage, RPM, or .deb.
3
Download in the browser
If a newer version exists, tap Download. The app opens the browser; it never auto-installs.
Feed URL pattern: …/{channel}/latest.json
Update channels
Each package tracks its own feed so the right installer opens for your build.
