Why Antigravity Says Your Current Version Is Out of Date
The out-of-date warning usually appears when the installed Antigravity build is older than the minimum version accepted by the service. Because Antigravity depends on cloud AI features, older desktop clients may stop working even if the editor interface still opens normally.
This is different from a normal feature update. A feature update may be optional, but an unsupported client warning means you should update before continuing serious work. The safest route is to move to the latest stable release, then reopen your workspace and verify sign-in, extensions, terminal integration, and agent features.
If you arrived here after searching for the exact warning text, treat the message as a version compatibility issue first. Avoid cracked installers, random APK files, or modified packages, because they can create a second problem while you are trying to fix the first one.
Best Update Method by Platform
Use the method that matches how Antigravity was installed. Installing the latest build over the existing app is usually enough on Windows and macOS. Linux users should prefer package manager updates when the repository was used.
| Platform | Best update method | Use this when |
|---|---|---|
| Windows | Download the latest Windows installer and run the .exe over the existing installation. | You installed Antigravity with the standard Windows installer. |
| macOS | Download the latest .dmg, replace the Antigravity app in Applications, then reopen it. | You use Apple Silicon or Intel macOS and installed from a disk image. |
| Linux | Run apt or dnf update commands if you installed from the Antigravity repository. | Your system already has the Antigravity repository configured. |
| Old version rollback | Use a specific version page only when you need temporary compatibility testing. | A new release breaks a workflow and you need a short-term fallback. |
How to Update Antigravity IDE Step by Step
Check Your Current Antigravity Version
Open Antigravity and check the About dialog or version screen before updating. Write down the installed version so you can confirm the upgrade worked later. If the app already displays an out-of-date message, do not spend time changing project settings first; treat the client version as the likely cause.
Install the Latest Stable Version
Use the latest stable version page or the platform page for Windows, macOS, or Linux. Windows users can run the new .exe installer over the old copy. macOS users can replace the app in Applications. Linux users should update through apt or dnf when the Antigravity repository is already configured.
Reopen Antigravity and Verify the Fix
Launch Antigravity from the normal system launcher, open the About dialog again, and confirm the version changed. Then reopen a real workspace, sign in if requested, and test one AI feature such as tab completion or an agent task. If the warning remains, follow the troubleshooting section below.
What to Do If the Warning Still Appears
If Antigravity still says your current version is out of date after installing the latest version, the issue is usually caused by a stale running process, an old shortcut, or a second installation folder.
Close every Antigravity process before reinstalling
On Windows, check Task Manager for Antigravity processes before running the installer again. On macOS, quit the app from the Dock and Activity Monitor if needed. On Linux, close all Antigravity windows and stop any background process before updating through apt or dnf.
Make sure your shortcut opens the new app
Some users keep an old desktop shortcut, pinned taskbar item, or custom launcher that points to a previous installation path. After updating, open Antigravity from the Start menu, Applications folder, or your system app launcher, then replace old shortcuts if the new app works.
Check whether two versions are installed
A machine can sometimes have a system-wide copy and a user-local copy. If the About dialog still shows an old version, remove the older duplicate only after confirming where your latest installation lives.
Sign in again after a major update
If the editor opens but AI features fail, sign out and sign in again. This helps refresh account state, model access, and cloud feature availability after a client update.
Update Antigravity on Windows
For Windows 10 and Windows 11, download the latest Windows installer, close Antigravity, and run the .exe file. In most cases, installing over the existing copy preserves settings, projects, and shortcuts. If the warning remains, unpin old shortcuts and open the new installation from the Start menu before removing any duplicate copy.
Update Antigravity on macOS
On macOS, download the latest disk image for Apple Silicon or Intel, quit Antigravity, open the .dmg, and replace the app in Applications. If macOS asks whether to replace the existing app, choose replace. Open the app from Applications after updating so you do not accidentally launch an old copy from another folder.
Update Antigravity on Linux
If you installed Antigravity from the Linux repository, update it with your package manager. Debian and Ubuntu users can run sudo apt update and then upgrade or install antigravity. Fedora and RHEL users can run sudo dnf upgrade antigravity. Repository updates are preferable because they keep package metadata and future updates aligned.
Should You Use an Old Antigravity Version?
Old Antigravity versions are useful only for short-term troubleshooting, compatibility checks, or reproducing a project-specific issue. They are not the best default choice because cloud features, agent behavior, security fixes, and model access can depend on the current client.
If you need an old build, record why you are using it, keep the test environment separate from your daily workspace, and return to the latest stable version once the issue is resolved. For most users who see the out-of-date warning, upgrading is safer than downgrading.
Security note
Avoid searches such as Antigravity cracked version, Antigravity APK, or unlimited modified builds. They do not solve update compatibility problems and can put your code, credentials, and workspace files at risk.
