        I don't know if it works for any app, but I bet it doesn't make a difference which app it is.

        I don't know if it should work for any app but when i made post above, i had the corona app ready for an update on the openstore, so i tested not upgrading from store and searched it in settings app instead, but this update never prompted on system settings no matter how many refreshs i made.

        Maybe an issue here.

          @keneda Not all app updates appear in the Settings. The proper place to update apps is in the Open Store anyhow, or at least it should be, imho.

          App updates appearing in the Settings or no are not related to the original issue the OP raised. So discussing these is better done in a separate thread.

            Hi AppLee.

            I tried that the last time. I saw the 2 updates in the Open Store app. Then closed it and went to the System Settings update section - they were no there. :man_shrugging:

              So there is something to differenciate them, but I don't know what. 🙂
              Usually I do what @arubislander suggests. It's simple this way 😉

                I used to think it was apps directly connected to and installed with the OS that appeared in System Settings, Updates. All others in OpenStore. Still this is all a way off from the original topic now.

                  I expected to see the OTA-20 update in the System Settings updates today. Can others see it? I hope my OTA-20 is not being blocked somehow from the old 'Ubuntu Touch Version 2105' update. 🤔

                        Hi. How do I turn on ADB access?

                          @opolork You need adb and fastboot installed on your pc/laptop. If you are running linux there are terminal commands, if windows 15 sec adb from xda developers installed system wide. Probably best if you switch on developer mode on your phone in System, Settings, About. Then connect your phone to pc with usb cable and grant permission in the pop box.

                          Linux terminal commands entre one at atime

                          Sudo apt update
                          sudo add-apt-repository ppa:phablet-team/tools && sudo apt-get update
                          sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot

                                  @domubpkm Hi. Yes, there's another choice. I may give it a little while and then decide. 🙂

                                    It never took more than one week for an OTA update to reach my MX4.

                                      There is another way but it will remove all update history from the Settings app. Install UT Tweak Tool from the app store and through it, delete cache or data in the Settings app.

                                      If I don't remenber it wrong, you could use the filemanager to delete the files if you knows where they are stored. This has been discussed in older threads.

                                        @rondarius Hi. I launched UT Tweak Tool but don't see where to delete cache/data in the Settings app. Is it under 'Behavior', 'Apps+Scopes', or 'System' in the UT Tweak Tool top left menu? Thanks.

                                            Ah, I didn't expect the Systems Settings to be listed as an app.

                                            I check all the boxes. Then had to input my favorite language, city, etc. I did a reboot in case it was needed. In the System Settings updates, it's now empty and says 'Software is up to date'. So I'll just wait for the next few days for OTA-20. 🙂

                                              @opolork I assume you have already used the installer. Haven't you? If so, the installation is easy. I did it this morning with it.
