Reader software updates![](https://b.stripecdn.com/docs-statics-srv/assets/fcc3a1c24df6fcffface6110ca4963de.svg)
Stripe maintains the software that controls smart readers. The readers receive updates automatically from Stripe when not in use. Leave your reader connected to power to receive automatic software updates. This ensures that updates happen at midnight (in the timezone of the assigned location) to avoid interruption to sales. If you unplug the reader at night, an update could start when you turn it back on. To manually check for an update, reboot the reader.
Note
Smart readers restart every day at midnight for PCI compliance, and disconnect from the POS app every morning.
