DO NOT UNINSTALL xDRIP+
You can upgrade and downgrade xDrip+ just installing a newer or an older version on top of the current one.
Uninstalling xDrip+ might lead to complete and unrecoverable data loss if you don't backup.
Only xDrip+ official versions can use this feature.
If you installed a forked version, only the author can provide upgrades.
Note
Updating xDrip+ is completely transparent and will not require any specific actions on your current sensor.
Your settings will be maintained unless a serious modification was made on a specific setting.
As a precaution it's better to keep xDrip+ monitored if you selected an alpha or nightly release.
You should enable automatic update check.
Automatic update check 
Get notified of new apk releases
If you leave it disabled xDrip+ will remind you to update every 60 days.
Hey fam...
You have update checks switched off!
We try to fix bug and add xDrip+ features over time.
Every 60 days this reminder will appear to ask you to turn update checking on.
There are four update channels:
- Stable: released versions that proved stability and reliability
- Beta: versions that are candidates to stable release
- Alpha: versions in development
Once Alpha selected, update and you can see a new option:
- Nightly: prototypes for testing
Most tested versions will not include latest features and fixes.
Less tested versions might include bugs but will also include latest features and fixes.
Update channel (beta)
Choose Stable, Beta or Alpha release

Stable - tried and tested versions

Update⌁
You can update xDrip+ by installing another version on top of the current one without uninstalling it, the same way you originally installed it.
You can also use xDrip+ internal update mechanism.
Update available notifications will trigger based on your channel selection.
You can manually request a check if you disabled automatic update check using the 3 dots menu.
- The currently update channel will be displayed
- Current and newer (available) versions
- Download now will start the update download, Android will ask for the install authorization when download is complete.
- You can disable automatic updates. This has the same effect than the automatic update check button above.
- If you don't use the internal downloader, your device will use the default app for downloading internet files.
- Exit without doing anything.
If selecting the internal downloader you will see a progress bar and once complete, the install will start automatically.
If you didn't select the internal downloader your phone will download the package from GitHub and launch the install once complete.
No new permissions should be required.
Once upgraded you can verify the current version in system status.
Downgrade⌁
You don't need to uninstall xDrip+ to return to an older version (unless switching from official to forked version and the other way round): just install the version you want on top of the current one like you did at first install.
