The Fairphone Updater app should always be up to date. You will, in that case, receive notifications when a new software update is ready to be installed on your Fairphone 2.

If you are a Google apps user, you can get the update though Google Play store. Otherwise, you can update it manually.

1. Remove your SD cards and SIM cards from their slots. You can insert them when you have completed the procedure.
2. On your Fairphone 2 go to Settings → Security and enable Unknown sources
3. Download the Updater app (APK file) from https://frphn.co/android7updater (give your browser permissions if necessary)
4. Open the downloaded file:
   • by pressing on the notification about the completed download or
   • by opening the Downloads app and opening the APK file.
     
5. Press Install button
6. Optionally accept or decline the Google security check
7. You will see a screen saying that Fairphone Updater has been installed
8. Go to Settings → Security and disable Unknown sources.
