Update with confidence.Approve, apply, and undo from your phone.

Approve plugin, theme, and core updates from the app, WP Tailwatch records every change, and one tap rolls back anything that breaks.

1

See what needs updating

WP Tailwatch detects available plugin, theme, and core updates across your sites and sends a push alert so nothing slips through unpatched.

2

Approve from anywhere

Review and approve updates straight from the mobile app. Each update is applied and logged to a full history with the exact versions involved.

3

Roll back if needed

If an update breaks your layout, checkout, or a critical feature, tap rollback to instantly restore the previous version and get your site working again.

Why it matters

Why safe updates and rollback matter.One bad update can take a live site down.

Research consistently finds that the vast majority of WordPress vulnerabilities live in plugins and themes rather than the core software, Patchstack's annual security report attributes well over 90% of catalogued WordPress vulnerabilities to plugins and themes. Source: Patchstack State of WordPress Security. That makes keeping plugins and themes current one of the single most effective security habits you can have, but the fear of an update breaking the site is exactly what makes people put it off.

Updates & Rollback removes that fear. You can patch promptly because you know a bad update is one tap away from being reversed, and the full history means you always know what changed and when. That is the WP Tailwatch difference: staying secure without gambling on uptime.
