### Updating the Robot Controller App
It is important to know how to update the Robot Controller app that is installed on a Control Hub. FIRST periodically releases new versions of this app, which contain improvements and fixes, as well as season-specific data and features.
The Control Hub lacks a touch screen and Google Play support. Unfortunately, teams that use the Control Hub cannot update the Control Hub's Robot Controller app directly through the Google Play store.
Instead, Control Hub users can download the Robot Controller app from the appropriate FIRST-Tech-Challenge repository (for the Skystone season, the app can be found [here](https://github.com/FIRST-Tech-Challenge/SkyStone/tree/master/doc/apk)) and use the _Manage_ page of the Control Hub's browser-based interface to complete the update.
