In this article, we describe several ways to update the Vigvam application.

Vigvam is a browser extension. It is the same application as your smartphone ones. The only difference is that it lives right inside the browser, such as Chrome.

Any browser extension can be updated automatically every time you completely restart your browser. It is the first way which you can always use.

At the same time, Vigvam can be updated inside the application itself with no need to restart the browser!

How to update Vigvam without restarting the browser?

You can update Vigvam right inside the app.

You need conduct the following steps:

1. Make sure Vigvam is installed and the extension is enabled

To do this, go to the Extensions page in your browser menu.
