[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Zoom software updates

Yup, agreed.

I don't know for certain and I can't prove it but I would presume that the Mac version upgrades very similarly to the way the windows version does from inside the software or from using some kind of software update service integrated with the Mac OS I don't know.

No apple Hardware here.

The Linux operating system handles software updates via a software updater tool. 

I have zoom on my Android Samsung and it updates zoom automatically from the Google Play app store.
