Keep It Updated

Keep Andronix and your distros up to date - Andronix updates with the app, and your distro's packages with its own package manager.

Andronix's part updates with the app. The installer and everything that runs Linux in the app are inside the Andronix app, so they update when the app does. When an update is ready, the app shows Update available; after it downloads, tap Restart.
Your distro's packages update with the distro's own package manager, in the distro's terminal. On Debian and Ubuntu:
```
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
```
On Fedora, sudo dnf upgrade; on Arch and Manjaro, sudo pacman -Syu; on Alpine, sudo apk upgrade; on Void, sudo xbps-install -Su.

andronix update is only for distros in Termux; see Keep it updated in Termux.

Back Up Your Files

Keep your files from a distro in the app - there's no in-app backup yet, so copy them out with the Files app or the shared folders - and move a Termux backup into the app.
