Don't worry if you sometimes see that some of your lists are marked "⚠️ Out of date". uBO updates filters lists in periodic sessions. In regular browser usage, the first one begins [`autoUpdateDelayAfterLaunch`](./Advanced-settings#autoupdatedelayafterlaunch) (105) seconds after uBO (your browser) is started. Lists found to be outdated (for which _expiration time_ passed) are then downloaded in [`autoUpdateAssetFetchPeriod`](./Advanced-settings#autoupdateassetfetchperiod) (15) seconds intervals. After this update session ends, uBO will wait [`autoUpdatePeriod`](./Advanced-settings#autoupdateperiod) (1) hour to start updating filters again. As you see, there can be periods of time, where your lists are marked outdated. In irregular browser usage, when your lists expiration time is exceeded more than twice, uBO will trigger "emergency" update, which should give you all your lists updated in below one minute after start.
