How to update to latest version of Affinity Photo?


Recommended Posts

This happens everytime a new version of Affinity Photo comes out.  Unlike most software, I cannot find any option anywhere in Affinity to update to the latest version.  Nor does any info come up on the Affinity help or the forums.

It seems if I bought Affinity Photo directly from Serif, my only option to upgrade it is to buy it again?

Surely there's an easier way to update.

Thanks for any info,

- Jeff

Just wait a little. It seems that Serif has some problems at the moment to provide all updates to all users quickly. I think you will get yours tomorrow. And you will not need to search for it. A message will appear on screen after you started the app.

If you purchased your app on Microsoft or Apple Store, take a look there. I found my updates in the Microsoft Store, in my library, yesterday evening. My Designer update appeared today. This is the only app I bought on the Affinity Store, so it came a little later this time.

No need to panic!

The updates appeared today in my App Store when I click on the apple in the top bar, on my imac desktop. There they are. I bought from the AppStore.

Thanks to both of your for the help.  :)  I ended up buying Affinity from both Serif and the Mac App Store, for just this reason.  The Mac App store version was easy to update, but historically was always behind in release dates (I assumed because of waiting for Apple to approve it.). This time, it actually had 1.10!  Still, I'd really like to be able to update my non-Mac Store Affinity Photo, just because I feel like that's closer to Serif.  I'll try waiting a bit and see.

You can update that one from your Affinity Store account: https://affinity.store/account/downloads
