Signiant App Beta Program

The Signiant App beta program allows you to try new functionality and features before they are released to the public.

Sign up to be notified when a new beta version becomes available:

You can download the latest beta release from the Signiant App download page or by changing your application preferences to automatically download the latest available beta release and allow the application to update automatically.

The Signiant App automatically checks for updates every 12 hours. To force an immediate update, edit the SigniantClient.json file and delete the update-checked line. The Signiant App then checks for an update after the next file transfer. A notification is displayed when the update is ready for installation.
