Tapping Update Warp button should immediately start the update flow

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It's annoying that today when you tap the update button you get a strange dropdown that displays yet another item you need to tap on to update the client. This is unnecessary and an extra step.

Additional context

Given how frequently the app updates it would be nice to make this a better experience since everyone is doing this regularly

How important is this feature to you?
