# Checking your Software Version

To determine what version of software your Origin is running, go to the Settings screen by tapping the gear icon in the upper right corner of Origin’s screen.

You can find the Software Version name next to Info:

![Screenshot\_2021-07-09\_17.29.07.png](https://support.shapertools.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Screenshot_2021-07-09_17_29_07.png?width=500&height=300&name=Screenshot_2021-07-09_17_29_07.png)

To see if you have the latest version, compare your Version with the most recent release listed on the [Release Notes](https://www.shapertools.com/releases/origin) page.

If you don’t have the latest version, you can follow the instructions [here](https://support.shapertools.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000430514?hsLang=en) bring your Origin up to date.
