Understanding and Using Aerial Companion

Aerial Companion was introduced with Aerial 2.0. It's an independent application that allows for additional functionality for Aerial. Built entirely in Swift, the program is agile and doesn't hog a significant amount of memory while performing vital tasks. If you installed Aerial directly from GitHub, you may not have Aerial Companion, but if you installed it through the instructions above, you likely do.

The main benefit of using Aerial Companion is that it allows for automatic updates of Aerial in the background. To enable this, please follow the steps below.

If you wish to install Aerial Companion at a later time, you can always do so by clicking here and downloading Aerial Companion.

After installing Aerial Companion, launch Aerial.app from your Applications folder
You will notice a menubar icon appear at the top of your screen. Click on the icon.
Set your Desired Version as either the current stable release or beta releases (if you like taking a risk!). At times, these version numbers may be the same if there's no public beta available.
Set your update mode as Automatic to enable automatic updates. You can also choose to be notified about new updates, but this will require you to use Aerial Companion more frequently.
Set Aerial Companion to check for updates every Hour, day, or Week. For the best experience it is reccomended that you set this to check for updates every day.

If you want Aerial Companion to automatically check for updates and automatically install them, it is not important for Aerial Companion to be visible in your menubar. Instead you can have it run in the background.

To run in the background choose Launch and then select In the background (no menu).

Note that Aerial Companion will now quit and no longer be visible in the menubar. Updates will be performed in the background
