How to Update the Binance APP
Why You Should Keep the Binance APP Updated
Binance regularly releases APP updates that include new features, performance optimizations, security patches, and bug fixes. Using an old version may lead to:
- Certain trading features not working properly
- Display issues or crashes
- Known security vulnerabilities
- Inability to participate in newly launched activities
Therefore, it's recommended to always keep your Binance APP at the latest version. Below are specific update methods for different platforms.
iOS Update Methods
Update via App Store (Overseas Apple ID Users)
If you downloaded the Binance APP using an overseas Apple ID from the App Store:
- Switch to the overseas Apple ID you used to download Binance
- Open the App Store
- Tap the profile icon in the top right > Pull down to check for available updates
- Find Binance and tap Update
- After updating, you can switch back to your domestic Apple ID
Auto-update settings: Go to Settings > App Store > Enable "App Updates" for automatic downloads. Note that auto-updates only work when the Apple ID used to download Binance is currently signed in.
Update via TestFlight
If you installed via TestFlight:
- Open the TestFlight app
- Find Binance
- If a new version is available, an Update button will appear
- Tap to update
TestFlight typically pushes update notifications automatically.
Enterprise Signing Version Update
Enterprise-signed versions don't have auto-update capability and require manual action:
- Open the Binance APP — if a new version is available, a pop-up reminder will appear on the homepage
- Tap the update link in the reminder
- Or visit the Binance website to re-download the latest installation package
- The new version will install over the old one — no need to uninstall first
Android Update Methods
Manual APK Update
If you installed via APK (most domestic Android users):
- In-app update: Open Binance APP > An update prompt usually appears automatically > Tap "Update Now" > Download the new APK > Install
- Website download: Visit the APK download page to download the latest version > Install directly, which will automatically overwrite the old version
- Manual check: Open APP > Profile > Settings > About > Check for Updates
Update via Google Play
If you installed via Google Play:
- Open the Google Play Store
- Tap the profile icon in the top right > Manage apps and device
- Find Binance and tap Update
- Or enable auto-updates, and the Play Store will update automatically
Update Precautions
Before Updating
- Ensure stable network: Update packages are typically 50-100MB — WiFi is recommended
- Check storage space: Ensure your phone has enough space for downloading and installing the update
- Remember login credentials: While updates usually don't clear login state, just in case, make sure you know your account password and 2FA method
After Updating
After the update completes, it's recommended to check:
- Login status: Confirm you're still logged in; if logged out, log back in
- Security settings: Check that 2FA, biometric login, and other security settings are working
- Notification permissions: Some system updates may reset notification permissions — confirm push notifications are enabled
- Language settings: Occasionally the language may reset after an update and need to be reconfigured
Common Update Questions
Q: Will my data be lost after updating? A: No. Binance data is stored on servers. Updating the APP won't affect your account balance, trading history, or any other data.
Q: What if the update fails? A: First check your network connection and storage space. If it still fails, you can uninstall the old version and re-download the latest version from the website or APK download page. Uninstalling won't affect your account data.
Q: Can I roll back to an older version? A: Not recommended. If the new version has issues, it's better to wait for Binance to fix them and update again. Using old versions may pose security risks.
Q: Do I need to re-verify my identity after updating? A: No. Identity verification information is linked to your account, not the APP version.
How to Check Your Current Version
- iOS: Open APP > Settings > About Us > View version number
- Android: Open APP > Profile > Settings > About > View version number
- You can also check in phone system settings: Settings > App Management > Binance > View version info
Keeping the APP updated is fundamental to maintaining account security and a good user experience. Make it a habit to check for updates regularly.
