Q: How do I know if there is an Android update available on my iK Flyer
A: You will be notified of updates in one of two ways:
Update notifications on the device
- When there is an update available you will get a notification on your device
- Once the update is successfully downloaded, the device will notify you to install the update
- While the update installs, you will not be able to transact
- After the update is installed, the device will restart
- You are now ready to start trading again
The "System Update" app
- Open the "System Update" app located in the folder called "Tools"
- Press the "Check the update" button
- If there is an update available, you can start the download
Tip: Press the "Speed Limited" button and move the slider all the way to the right so that the setting states "Speed not limited". This is the fastest way to download the update.
Install and Reboot
- When the download is 100% complete, the update will be validated
- When the update is ready to install, select the button called "Reboot the update"
- This will start the installation
- Once the installation is complete the iK Flyer will restart automatically
- The iKhokha app should automatically open after the device switches back on
Q: What happens if I skip the update?
A: Opting not to update your device could result in performance issues. It's best to ensure that you keep your device up to date. We will keep reminding you to update Android on your iK Flyer.
Q: How often will I need to update Android on the Flyer?
A: Android updates on the Flyer are rare.
Note: Android updates are different from iKhokha app updates on the Flyer, which happen more often as new features and overall experience improvements are made. This is just another way we make doing business easier.
Q: My device is slow after the update, is this normal?
A: It is normal for the device to be a bit slow at first. This is due to all the services starting up in the background.
If your device remains slow for a prolonged period after the update, or if the update was interrupted, please contact support for assistance at support@ikhokha.com or call us on 087 222 7000, Monday to Friday between 8am and 5pm.
