My SHS shows me a new update at version 12.11.1. But I can’t update the system this time via the synology container solution. It always pulls the version 12.11.0 from Athom’s server Did somebody updated the system successfully? ---

Hm, I see, officially latest is Homey Self-Hosted Server v12.11.1 , have you tried : `docker pull ghcr.io/athombv/homey-shs:12.11.1` ? > **[Homey Self-Hosted Server Changelog | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/wiki/homey-shs-changelog/)** OK, got it… 12.11.1 is marked as BETA but it’s not marked as Beta on the changelog. Have you tried enabling [Homey Developer Tools](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/settings) Experimental updates ? ![obrazek](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/a/ca922f3e16639c5e583f80b394be83f5a1695804.png) ---

Actually, seems you have enabled Experimental updates…so when you disable it, no updates will be shown 🤣 (I know that’s probably not a solution you are looking for, so probably only way is to update it directly using pull with exact tag) ---

Experimental updates are enabled SHS seems to be a better BETA Solution. Like everytime when IT Companies starts a new system ---

> [@Sharkys](#): > > Simply install Watchtower and it will take care of it. Watchtower is a great and reliable app, but when an update has breaking changes, you’ll have a surprise coming. I’d rather use Dockhand to check for updates (you can have a notification too). That way, I can check upfront what the changes are and manually update. See: > **[GitHub - Finsys/dockhand: Dockhand - Docker management you will like.](https://github.com/Finsys/dockhand)** > > Dockhand - Docker management you will like. And here for tips & trick, including a link to the installation guide: > **[Dockhand Tips and Tricks – The New Portainer Slayer](https://mariushosting.com/dockhand-tips-and-tricks-the-new-portainer-slayer/)** > > Trustworthy expert guide to your Synology NAS. I also only managed to update SHS to v12.11.1 when pointing to the exact version `ghcr.io/athombv/homey-shs:12.11.1` Thanks @Sharkys!
