## Timeline of updates

- **resolved** 2022-08-05 19:00 UTC: From 12:02 PM PT to 2:22 PM, apps that checked for new updates from EAS Update and had a new update available would not launch due to a parsing error. Apps were affected if they were not running in the background and had a new update available. Apps that were running in the background or already had the latest update or for which there was no update were not affected.

_From the vendor’s published history: only the final update text is available for incidents before Rewindex began polling this page._
