Summary: This article explains how to manually update the Speakap app on iPhone or iPad via the App Store, and how to turn on automatic updates so you always have the latest version.
Option 1: Update via the App Store
- Open the App Store on your device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner.
- Scroll down to the Available Updates section.
- Find Speakap in the list and tap Update.
- Wait for the download to finish. The app updates automatically once it's done.

Frequently asked questions
Why don't I see Speakap in my list of available updates?
Your app is likely already on the latest version. Confirm this by going to the App Store, searching for Speakap, and checking whether an Update button appears.
Do I need Wi-Fi to update?
You can update over mobile data, but updates over 200MB require Wi-Fi by default. We recommend updating over Wi-Fi for the best experience.
Will I lose my data or messages after updating?
No. Updating the app does not affect your messages, notifications, or account data.
What if the update fails or gets stuck?
Restart your device and try the update again. Make sure you have enough storage space available. If the issue continues, contact Speakap support.
