explanation for non-techies**
Microsoft 365 Apps are getting an update for those using the Current Channel. Think of this like your smartphone getting a new software update. If your phone is set to update automatically, you don't have to do anything; it just happens. Similarly, if your Microsoft 365 Apps are set to update automatically from the Office Content Delivery Network (CDN), you can sit back and relax as the updates will be applied without any action needed from you.
However, if you prefer to manage updates manually, it's like choosing to download and install a new app version yourself. You can now download the latest update and start the process of updating your systems. This approach gives you more control, much like deciding when to update your phone or computer software.
For those interested in the specifics of what's included in this update, there are release notes available online. These notes are like the patch notes for a video game, detailing what changes and improvements have been made. They provide a comprehensive list of updates and features, ensuring you're informed about what the new version brings to the table.
