How to disable automatic firmware update on Moku:Lab
Liquid Instruments continues to improve Moku:Lab and add new features.
We regularly update both the iPad app and Windows app; both apps automatically check for updates. The update history is here : Update log
The apps contain the Moku:Lab firmware and some updates will need a new version of firmware. The app will indicate the need for new Moku firmware with an orange exclamation point next to the Moku:Lab icon. The download of firmware will typically take less than 5 minutes. If you wish to prevent Moku:Lab firmware updates, you need to prevent app updates.
Turn off auto-updates
In some situations, for example during a long running experiment or ahead of an important demonstration, you may wish to turn off automatic updates. By turning off the app auto-update, you will prevent undesirable or inconvenient Moku:Lab firmware updates.
iPad
Turn off "Automatically Check For Updates" in the Moku:Lab app
AND turn off the iOS auto-update of "Apps" and "App Updates" in "Settings" ->"App Store"
