App update flow: download progress is not surfaced on the restart button — text hint is too easy to miss

[BlessedChild]

When Finch downloads an update, the post-download UI shows a text hint like "click to restart". The hint looks tappable as text, but tapping it does nothing — the actual restart trigger is an adjacent button whose color contrast is too subdued to notice. Until I discovered the button by chance, the update appeared stuck. Surfacing the download progress and the restart action directly on a single high-contrast button would make this much harder to miss.

Steps to reproduce

1. Wait for an in-app update to be available, or trigger an update check that produces a downloaded build.
2. Observe the post-download UI prompting the user to restart.
3. Try clicking the "click to restart" text hint.

Expected behavior

Download progress and the "Restart now" action are shown together on a single, high-contrast button:

• While downloading: a progress fill animates inside the button, with text like "Downloading update… 42%".
• When complete: the button switches to "Restart to apply update".

If a text hint is kept at all, it must clearly look non-interactive (no link-like color/underline).

Actual behavior

The "click to restart" text hint is separated from the actual restart button. The text itself is unresponsive when clicked. The real restart button is visually low-contrast and easy to overlook — until you find it, the entire update flow appears to be stuck.

Suggested fix

Use a single button to carry the whole update flow:

• While downloading: the button shows a fill-progress with status text "Downloading update… 42%".
• When complete: the button label becomes "Restart to apply update" (high contrast).

Environment

• App: Finch 1.2.1 (build 247) — Desktop
• OS: macOS 26.4.1 (25E253)
