Update the Browser Extension

In this guide, we'll share how to keep your Rainbow Extension updated across all supported browsers.

Chrome:

Updates within Chrome should update automatically. In the event that you need to confirm/check that you're on the latest version, there are two routes within Chrome to take:

  1. You can head to the Chrome Webstore and if an update is needed, you'll see that displayed on the right-hand side: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/rainbow/opfgelmcmbiajamepnmloijbpoleiama

  2. You can also toggle Developer mode under chrome://extensions/ and click the update button at the top.

Brave:

Updates within Brave should update automatically. In the event that you need to confirm/check that you're on the latest version, you can follow the step below:

  1. You'll head to brave://extensions and toggle the Developer mode switch in the top right, where you should see a new bar of options, including an Update button. That should get you the latest versions of your extension.

Edge:

Updates within Edge should update automatically. Microsoft Edge automatically checks for updates of extensions every few hours. In the event that you need to confirm/check that you're on the latest version, you can follow the step below:

  1. You can head to to edge://extensions, turn on the Developer mode toggle, and then click the Update button.

Firefox:

In the event that updates do not automatically happen on Firefox, or those updates were not set up, you can follow the instructions below:

  1. Go to the Extensions panel.

  2. Click More to see the details page of a specific extension

  3. Click on the extension and select the Details tab.

  4. Find the Automatic Updates line. (You may need to scroll down the page).

  5. Select Update.

Arc updates should automatically be synced. For additional resources, you can check out Arc's guide here: https://resources.arc.net/hc/en-us/articles/19434259167767-Extensions-in-Arc-How-to-Import-Add-Open
