Coverage chart / Maxthon
Keep Maxthon up to date on your Mac
Maxthon is covered by Floodtide. It shows up in your update list the moment a newer version ships.
How Maxthon gets updated
Floodtide's own signed catalog lists where Maxthon'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.
The developer publishes the version but no download Floodtide can check, so Floodtide does not install this one itself. The update comes from Maxthon's own updater, or from the developer's site.

The developer publishes no download Floodtide can check, so the update itself comes from Maxthon's own updater or the developer's site.
How does Floodtide install a new version of Maxthon?
It does not install this one itself. It shows you the new version as soon as Maxthon's developer publishes it, and you update from Maxthon's own updater or the developer's site.
