The Automatic Updates feature allows Gym Assistant to update itself automatically through the internet. We generally release a new build of the software every few weeks with bug fixes, enhancements and new features. An update will replace only the software application (.exe) files that affect function, and it will leave all of your data and documents untouched.
Select Auto-Update from the Settings menu.
Note: If you do not have a live internet connection or you do not wish to take advantage of the Automatic Updates feature then just set Check online for updates to Never and click OK.
Check online for updates
This setting determines how often Gym Assistant will check for updates:
•Never will basically disable the Automatic Updates feature. Select this option if you do not have a live internet connection or if your system will not allow Gym Assistant to connect directly to the internet.
•Every Startup will check every time you start Gym Assistant.
•Every Day will check only the first time you start Gym Assistant each day. This is the setting that we recommend.
•The other options (Every 3 Days, Every 7 Days, etc.) will check only after the specified time interval has passed.
Update Handling
This setting determines how Gym Assistant applies each update:
•Download and install updates automatically will always download an update if it is available. This is the recommended setting.
•Check for updates automatically, but ask before installing will download an update if it is available but you get to determine when the update is installed. Use this setting if you want to control when the update is installed, maybe to wait until you have done a global backup of the data.
•Always ask before checking for updates will ask you each time if you want to check for updates, and only download and install an update when you confirm that you wish to proceed with the update.
Email Notification
This setting specifies whether you want to receive an email when new releases are posted.
