# Updating

The current version of both your client and backend can be found in the footer of the bot. **To receive updates simply restart Splashforce.**

![Client v4.0.8 and backend v4.0.12](https://3437756372-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MeRIWvjWWqN8lnpc5FA%2F-MeS7UQq35imSKeCDjTu%2F-MeSBnLU4T-bG3Ak0YXu%2Ffooter.png?alt=media\&token=5c24f742-9daa-4ead-be3b-7f227ced8bf8)

{% hint style="warning" %}
Splashforce will only check for updates if the user is successfully logged in.
{% endhint %}

## Client updates

Client updates will require you to relaunch whereas backend updates do not. This means for the majority of updates you will not have to relaunch / reinstall the client.

**Please ensure your client is on the latest version at all times.**
