Automatic updates
Speechy keeps itself up to date on your Mac. It checks once a day, downloads new versions in the background and installs them the next time Speechy restarts; you can also click Check for Updates in the menu bar or Settings.

Questions
Every update is signed, and Speechy refuses one whose signature doesn't match.
No. Updates are never locked, so every copy gets fixes.
A copy run straight from the disk image can't update itself. Move Speechy to your Applications folder.
