Is there a homebrew app that can scan your games and tell you if there are any new updates or updated/new dlcs available for your installed games?

How about on the PC as well that can scan a folder with all your extracted games/updates/dlcs?

Does this exist?

If you have pro shop license it will show you what update and dlc you are missing/outdated etc.
Which Pro shop are you referring too. I would be inclined to pay for a license for this comfort. Are you possibly referring to Teknik.app pro or tits pro or ?

In general I am referring to using tinfoil, but free one won't have much content. Pro license for shop like tits pro.

Let me unwrap my slight confusion.

So I can use tinfoil to check if I have oudated/missing content or do you mean you can pay for a pro license on tinfoil (I didn't know this existed)?

or Pro license for tits pro and this has exactly what I am looking for. Any specifics prices and 1-time payment or monthly?

Any specific shop for pro license you are referring too?

Just trying to get it right. Once I get more info I'll insta buy.

Well you need the pro license to show what update and dlc are missing, if you don't have a pro license it probably won't show what you are missing as the shop doesn't have it.

You can use tinfoil to check for missing updates in the incomplete section. You don't need a shop account to do it, just select any game listed then press Y, and R to show install menu. Here you can see the latest update to the game and which version you installed.

Also you can check those release/rom sites manually to find updates for your games.

dbi has a similar feature, just go to tools - check for title updates, it will list missing updates/dlcs for installed titles.

PERFECT PERFECT RESPONSE! Thank you!

So tinfoil for individual titles and dbi for ALL titles.

I went to DBI v 598
I then went to tools and the only options are:
  • Cleanup orphaned files
  • Delete parental controls
  • Delete user
  • Run random game
  • System info
  • NTP time sync
I can't find the option.

the option could be hidden on your DBI, go to configuration and enable it:
