+
+Normally, Arduino App Lab is automatically updated when a new version is released. If you need to manually update App Lab, you can download and install the latest version from the Arduino website.
+
+---
+
+Follow these steps:
+
+1. Open the [Arduino Software page](https://www.arduino.cc/en/software/#app-lab-section).
+1. Find the **Arduino App Lab** section—not _Arduino IDE_ or _Arduino Lab for MicroPython_.
+1. Confirm that the download option for your operating system is selected and click **Download**.
+1. Wait for the download to finish.
+1. Install the application:
+   - **Windows:** Run the `.exe` file from your Downloads folder and follow the prompts provided by the installer.
+   - **macOS:** Open the `.dmg` file from your Downloads folder. Drag and drop Arduino App Lab into your Applications folder.
+   - **Linux:** Extract the downloaded `.tar.gz` archive. Optionally, move the folder to your Application folder, or wherever you had previously installed App Lab.
+1. If prompted, allow the installation to overwrite the old version of the application.
+
+After that, you will have the latest version of Arduino App Lab installed on your computer.
