When an update is available, Docker Desktop displays an icon to indicate the availability of a newer version. You can choose when to start the download and installation process.
When an update is available, Docker Desktop displays an icon to indicate the availability of a newer version.
Starting with Docker Desktop 4.1.0, the **Software Updates** section in the [General](../#general) tab also notifies you of any updates available to Docker Desktop. You can choose to download the update right away, or click the **Release Notes** option to learn what's included in the updated version. If you are on a Docker Team or a Business subscription, you can turn off the check for updates by clearing the **Automatically Check for Updates** checkbox in the [General](../#general) settings. This will also disable the notification badge that appears on the Docker Dashboard.
To encourage developers to stay up to date, Docker Desktop displays a reminder two weeks after an update becomes available. You can dismiss this daily reminder by clicking **Snooze**. You can skip an update when a reminder appears by clicking the **Skip this update** option.

## Dashboard
The Docker Desktop Dashboard enables you to interact with containers and applications and manage the lifecycle of your applications directly from your machine. The Dashboard UI shows all running, stopped, and started containers with their state. It provides an intuitive interface to perform common actions to inspect and manage containers and existing Docker Compose applications. For more information, see [Docker Desktop Dashboard](../dashboard.md).
