Updating the desktop JigSpace apps
JigSpace typically updates new versions of the desktop app on a monthly basis, to introduce new features and capabilities. See Whats New to get an idea of these updates.
You will be notified in the app when you need to update, as well as by email. Updates are free.
To update, go to the download page, and install the latest version as per the instructions above.
If you don’t update straight away, you will still be able to use JigSpace. However, you may miss out on some great new features. Content you create is generally backwards-compatible for viewing, but not always for editing, depending on the features you have in your Jigs.
