Since the rollout of HexOS local the "hexos (ix-app)" showed up in the TrueNAS app list. Makes sense for running HexOS local software on TrueNAS. The app is showing to have available updates in the TrueNAS app list. Of course, this app doesn't show up the HexOS Deck interface. So I cannot update it from there. My question is: - What should I do with this app? - Should I update it manually? - Will HexOS update it automatically? When? - Why does it show an update but didn't update automatically yet? I understand, that the intention for HexOS is to never have to touch TrueNAS. For my use cases I do very often and just wondered about this.

While the HexOS team prepares everything for an upgrade to 25.04, the recommendation is to stay on the 24.10 train. During my usage of HexOS, I have not seen it run minor upgrades of TrueNAS on its own or prompts that would allow me to trigger them. Some of those contain security fixes and I would like them to be applied to my system. Should I apply them manually through the TrueNAS web interface (`/ui/system/update`) or not touch it and HexOS should take care of it? What is the recommendation?
