Quick answer: First back up your progress in Geometry Dash (Settings > Account > Save). Then open Google Play, search for Geometry Dash and tap Update. The newest version is 2.2091 (build 2.2.145). If you installed an APK from outside Google Play and the update fails, save to your account, uninstall, install the official version and tap Load.
Step 1: Back Up Your Progress
Geometry Dash stores most progress on your device. An account backup protects it if anything goes wrong.
- Open Geometry Dash and tap the settings (gear) button.
- Tap Account. Register a free account if you don't have one, then log in.
- Tap Save and wait for the confirmation.
Your levels in the editor are also part of the saved data. Since 2.209 you can additionally export editor levels to files and turn on auto-backup.
Step 2: Update on Android (Google Play)
- Open Google Play and tap your profile picture.
- Choose Manage apps & device > Updates available.
- Find Geometry Dash and tap Update (about 167 MB).
- Open the game. Your data stays on the device, and your account backup is there if you need it.
Turn on auto-update for Geometry Dash on its Play Store page (three-dot menu) so future versions install automatically.
Updating a Sideloaded APK
If you installed Geometry Dash from an APK file you found online, Android will often show "App not installed" or "package conflicts with an existing package" when you try to update. This happens because the file was signed by someone else, not RobTop, so Android blocks the official update. To fix it:
- Save your progress to your account (Step 1).
- Uninstall the unofficial version. This deletes local data, which is why the backup matters.
- Install the official Geometry Dash from Google Play.
- Open Settings > Account, log in and tap Load.
Never log in with your main account inside a modified APK. Some fake builds steal login details. If you already did, change your password from the official game.
Updating on iPhone and Steam
- iPhone / iPad: open the App Store, tap your profile picture, scroll to pending updates and tap Update next to Geometry Dash (about 187 MB).
- Steam: updates download automatically. If not, right-click Geometry Dash in your Library and check Properties > Updates, or restart Steam.
Using Geode? Read This First
Mod loaders depend on a specific game version. The Geode team says the 2.2091 update broke Geode, so if the game crashes after updating, uninstall Geode and wait for its updated release. See our mod guide for details.
Common Update Problems and Fixes
| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| "Not enough storage" | Free at least 400 MB; updates need extra temporary space. |
| Update stuck on "Pending" | Pause other downloads in Google Play, then clear the Play Store cache. |

| Game crashes after updating | Restart your phone, remove mod loaders, then reinstall if needed. |
