Devlog 27:

This is a pretty major update. The myMusic can now automatically download and install updates, without the user having to go and download the github repository. Before, the user would manually have to go and download the installer from github, and set it up like a completely new install. Now, the app itself has a “Check for Updates” button. This button checks the github for the latest version, and if there is a newer version available it gives the user an option to download and install that. If they change their mind during the download, there is a cancel option as well.

This works by first getting the github version (latest), then seeing if the current app version matches that. If it does, the app is up to date. If not, then the app can fetch the executable using the github API and automatically download the latest installer. On top of this some inno setup tools allow the app to close the app, install the new version, and reopen the app by itself. The only caveat is that this only works starting from v1.2.0. This means that if you have an older version you will have to manually download v1.2.0 in order to start getting automatic app updates.
