The updated state contains true or false depending on whether a new version of the app has been deployed since the page was first opened. For this to work, your svelte.config.js must specify kit.version.pollInterval.

<script> import { page, navigating, updated } from '$app/state'; </script>

<script lang="ts"> import { page, navigating, updated } from '$app/state'; </script>

Version changes only happen in production, not during development. For that reason, updated.current will always be false in this tutorial.

You can manually check for new versions, regardless of pollInterval, by calling updated.check().

 {#if updated.current} <div class="toast"> <p> A new version of the app is available  <button onclick={() => location.reload()}> reload the page </button> </p> </div> {/if}

Prior to SvelteKit 2.12, you had to use $app/stores for this, which provides an $updated store with the same information. If you’re currently using $app/stores, we advise you to migrate towards $app/state (requires Svelte 5).
