Assume that we have two groups of users, the nyuth and the Security Team. We want the security team to get an update as soon as possible and postpone the update to nyuth team until the security team completes testing. We can do that by updating the priority.

{% hint style="warning" %}
️ Make sure we change the nyuth team back to Postponed to avoid auto-update when the new version gets released.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** **High Priority** means the devices will get the update soon after the new release becomes available on the **Play Store**, while **Postponed** means the devices will get the update after 90 days of the released date. Unfortunately, this **90 days cannot be changed.**
