# Updating Soapbox
You should always check the [release notes/changelog](https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/soapbox/-/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md) in case there are deprecations, special update changes, etc.
Besides that, it's relatively pretty easy to update Soapbox. There's two ways to go about it: with the command line or with an unofficial script.
## Updating with the command line
To update Soapbox via the command line, do the following:
```
# Download the build.
curl -O https://dl.soapbox.pub/main/soapbox.zip
# Unzip the new build to Pleroma's instance directory.
busybox unzip soapbox.zip -o -d /opt/pleroma/instance/static
```
## After updating Soapbox
The changes take effect immediately, just refresh your browser tab. It's not necessary to restart the Pleroma service.
