+- minor GUI improvements
+### Comments
+- currently snap daemon (2.40) automatically upgrades your installed applications in background. Although it's possible to check for new updates
+programmatically, it requires root access and would mess up with the user experience if every 5 minutes the application asked for the password. But not to let the
+user with empty hands, it was added a "Refresh" option when right-clicking an installed snap application. It will update the application if its not already updated by the daemon.
