This is intentional, as the automatic updates enforced by this mechanism must be reliable.
When releasing a new version, we follow these steps:
we release a new version and test it internally,
we make it available for download — clients help us test it across a wider range of environments (e.g. installations on various systems),
we deploy the version to our company accounting system in the cloud and to the demo installation,
if everything is still working correctly, we update the entire hosting environment for all clients,
we enable the new version notification and publish it to automatic updates.
This process has proven itself over several years of experience. It enables reliable automatic updates that you don't need to worry about. The process may take anywhere from a few days to several weeks.
If needed, you can upgrade to a different (higher) version by downloading the update from our website.
