Why are apps like Fairemail, Voyager, etc. updated so often? Why don’t they collect the changes and release them once a month or something like that?

It’s interesting that every time I open Voyager I see an update warnin at the bottom. Is that really required?

    Some apps are a community effort with multiple contributors. Voyager is one of those. This may have been better asked in no stupid questions. Why would you not want the latest bug fixes and features immediately after they’ve been approved?

      Because Im not a beta tester, and understand that the fastest way to make a bug is to patch a different one.

      I dont think this question should be in no stupid questions, but I am curious about a paired sub about answers.
