These are functionally identical apart from the following differences: IStudio Publisher is available as an App Store Edition and a Website Download Edition. As an alternative you can download another copy of the application software from our website Downloads page. Note that this menu option will be disabled until you close both the Welcome Panel and the Task Chooser. If you have turned off this option you can also initiate an update by choosing iStudio Publisher menu option Help > Check for Updates. Once you have installed the application for the first time, iStudio Publisher should notify you whenever a new version becomes available – simply accept each update when it is offered to you.
The Website Download Edition of iStudio Publisher includes an automatic update mechanism, so there’s no need to keep checking our website for the latest version. IMPORTANT: Do not try to update your App Store Edition by downloading iStudio Publisher from the iStudio website, as it will be unlicensed. The App Store Edition of iStudio Publisher can be updated via the standard App Store update mechanism – open the App Store app and choose menu option Store > Updates, or if it’s not listed there choose menu option Store > Purchases.
