This is how to update your HP Prime to a beta - TheLastMillennial - 04-14-2021 09:43 PM
Every time a new beta is released, I notice there's many users trying to figure out how to install it. I can't blame them for being lost, the search bar doesn't really help even if you search "update hp prime". While there are a few posts the instructions exist, I though it'd be worth it to make a topic that would be more likely to show up in the search results.

- Restart the Connectivity Kit and connect your Prime
- The upgrade will be offered promptly
