+## Updates
+
+In a default configuration, each time Zui is launched it will check over the
+network for the availability of a newer release. If one is found, a
+notification like the following will pop up.
+
+![Update Available](media/Update-Available.png)
+
+If **Later** is clicked, the notification is dismissed and no update is
+performed. If **Install** is clicked, the result on each platform is as follows:
+
+|**Platform**|**Result**|
+|-|-|
+|**Windows**|An interactive wizard for the newer release will launch, just like the one from initial [installation](#windows-installation).|
+|**macOS**|The newer release will install in the background and Zui will automatically relaunch into the newer version.|
+|**Linux**|The [Zui download](https://www.brimdata.io/download/) page will open in your browser. Manual uninstall/reinstall is necessary on Linux, so repeat the same download/uninstall/reinstall steps as during initial [installation](#linux-installation).|
+
+In all cases, updating to a newer version of the app will preserve your existing
+[user data](./support/Filesystem-Paths.md#user-data). Because the way user data
+is stored can sometimes change in newer releases, downgrading to older releases is
+_not_ currently supported.
+
+Configurable **Settings** are available to change notification frequency.
+
+![Updates Settings](media/Updates-Settings.png)
+
+|**Setting**|**Result**|
+|-|-|
+|**On Startup** (default)|A check is performed for a newer release once each time Zui is launched|
+|**On Startup & Daily**|A check is performed for a newer release when Zui is launched and every 24 hours thereafter that the app remains open|
+|**Manually**|Zui will never pop up an automatic notification about a newer release|
+
+Regardless of settings, manually clicking the pull-down menu option
+**Help > Check for Updates** on Windows/Linux or **Zui > Check for Updates**
+on macOS will perform an immediate check and a notification will pop up if a newer
+release is detected.
