How to update Askmeety on your Mac
Askmeety's developer publishes each version on their own page at askmeety.app, and the app can also update itself. Below is how to run that update yourself, then how Floodtide does it for you, alongside every other app on the Mac.
Update Askmeety by hand
- Let Askmeety update itself. Open Askmeety. It checks for new versions on its own, and if it has not offered one yet, look in the Askmeety menu, or under Help or its preferences, for Check for Updates, then let it download and relaunch.
- Download the current build from askmeety.app. Askmeety's developer publishes each release at askmeety.app. Get the Mac build from there.
- Replace the old copy. Quit Askmeety, open the download and put the new Askmeety 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.
The shorter route: one click in Floodtide
Floodtide's own signed catalog lists where Askmeety'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's own build is downloaded, with real progress.
- It is checked against a checksum where the source publishes one, otherwise against the developer signature of the copy already installed, and Gatekeeper has to accept it before anything is replaced.
- Askmeety is asked to quit politely if it is open, and never forced.

Questions about Askmeety
Does Floodtide update Askmeety?
Yes. Askmeety also ships its own updater, so it can keep itself current when you launch it. Floodtide covers it anyway, because a self-updating app only updates when you happen to open it, and it tells you nothing about the other apps on the Mac. Floodtide shows Askmeety beside everything else and updates the whole set in one pass.
How does Floodtide install a new version of Askmeety?
It downloads the developer's own build and checks it before anything on your Mac changes: against a checksum where the source publishes one, otherwise by requiring the same developer signature as the copy already installed, and Gatekeeper has to accept it. Then it quits Askmeety if it is running and puts the new version in place.
Will updating Askmeety lose my settings?
No. Floodtide replaces the application only. Preferences, licences and documents live outside it and are untouched.
