How to update Amberlight 2 on your Mac

Amberlight 2's developer publishes each version on their own page at escapemotions.com. Below is how to run that update yourself, then what Floodtide does about it, alongside every other app on the Mac.

Update Amberlight 2 by hand

  1. Download the current build from the developer. Amberlight 2's developer publishes each release on their own site. Get the Mac build from there.
  2. Replace the old copy. Quit Amberlight 2, open the download and put the new Amberlight 2 in Applications in place of the old one: a disk image is dragged across, an installer package runs its own steps. Your settings and documents live outside the app and are kept.

That is one app. The same walk, through a different menu or page each time, is what every other app on the Mac asks of you, which is where Floodtide comes in.

What Floodtide does about Amberlight 2

Floodtide's own signed catalog lists where Amberlight 2's developer publishes each release, and Floodtide reads that source directly to learn which version is current. When yours is behind, the row appears under Updates with the version that is out, next to every other app on the Mac that is behind.

The developer publishes the version but no download Floodtide can check, so Floodtide does not install this one itself. The update comes from Amberlight 2's own updater, or from the developer's site, and Floodtide is what tells you the day it is due.
