When a new version of the Clarius App is available, it will be available for download in the App Store or Google Play. Clarius can also notify users in advance by email of any upcoming updates.
If your smart device is set to automatically update apps as new versions are available, the Clarius App will update automatically too. Consequently, the Clarius Scanner may also require a firmware update the next time you connect to it using the Clarius App.
