 # Save and publish canvas apps
 
 Whenever you save changes to a canvas app, you automatically publish them only for yourself and anyone else who has permissions to edit the app. When you finish making changes, you must explicitly publish them to make them available to everyone with whom the app is shared.
 
-For information about how to share an app, see [Share an app](share-app.md).

+## Save your app
+
+With your app open for editing in [Power Apps](https://make.powerapps.com), you can save in several ways:
 
- With your app open for editing in [Power Apps Studio](https://create.powerapps.com), in the app actions menu, select **Save** and perform the following actions:
+- Select **Save** :::image type="icon" source="media/save-publish-app/save-icon.png"::: to save any unsaved changes you made to your app. With each Save, a new version is created in App version history.
 
-- **Save**: Saves recent and unsaved changes you made to the app in Power Apps Studio. Each time you save changes, a new version is created.
-- **Save with version notes**: Save and add notes about the updates you've made.
-- **Save as**: Duplicate the app by saving the app with a different name.
-- **Save and publish**: Allows you to save the app and publish it at the same time.
-- **Download a copy**: Downland a local copy of the app.
+- Or, in the dropdown menu, choose one of the following options:
 
+  - **Save with version notes**: Save and add notes about your updates.
+  - **Save as**: Duplicate the app with a different name.
+  - **Download a copy**: Download a local copy of the app.

+## Switch AutoSave on or off
 
+You can also set Power Apps to automatically save every two minutes.
 
-Power Apps can also periodically save the app every 2 minutes. If you've saved the app once, Power Apps will continue to save a version of the app periodically without requiring the user to press or tap the Save action. Authors can enable or disable the **Auto save** by going to **Setting** > **General**.

 ## In-app notifications for an updated version of the app
 
-Depending on the complexity of an app, changes that are recently published may not be available when a user launches the app. If this happens, users will get a toast notification stating **A new version of this app is coming. We'll let you know when it's available.** When the published changes are ready, users will see a notification stating **You're using an old version of this app. Refresh to use the latest version**. Users can select the **Refresh** button to see the latest version of the app.
