Description

For months I thought I was on the latest Xcode because Xcodes said I was. What I didn't notice was that I had been logged out and was actually very behind! This should probably be considered a bit of an error state and should stand out more so it can be corrected.

Perhaps there is a more intelligent threshold than "a month", like a placeholder Xcode row at the top with a login button overlaid on it and some copy like "Log in to see if there are newer Xcode's"

Thanks for the great app!

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the UI that displays the “Last updated” date and reproduce the logged-out state; compare the current date display with the requested older-than-a-month error treatment, while deciding whether the login prompt is in scope.
