Gear Lever does **not** compare version numbers or file contents. If two releases compress to the same byte size (common with AppImages), it will say “No updates available” even when the app changed. HSRename releases from v1.0.7 onward include a small version-specific padding file so each release has a unique size.
To see which version you have without updating: open the AppImage mount folder `usr/share/hsrename/VERSION`, or check **X-AppImage-Version** in Gear Lever metadata after **Reload metadata**.
