Using AppLife Update, you can easily enable your applications to discover, download, and apply updates automatically with little or no user interaction.

You can even use a completely custom executable to perform the update process.

With AppLife Update, you enable your users to obtain updates to your software without them having to determine which file to download, or whether to uninstall first, or whether to shutdown… These kinds of decisions are often the barriers that prevent users from obtaining updates.

• Integrate automatic updating features into your application with as little as one line of code.

• Incorporate license or eligibility checks into the update discovery process, controlling the distribution of updates.
