Sparkle is a third-party App. I want to know how a single bundle MACOS app placed in the Application directory updated itself. Can you please guide me on this?

Thanks for your quick ans but then what is the way to update notarized app distributed to outside the MAC Appstore in .zip format?
Hi Eskimo
As suggested above, I'm distributing my app in zip format. But stuck in app update?
My app self-detects for the latest version. If yes, then launch other non-appsandbox app that download the latest version, and then replace the old app (in the /Applications directory) with the new one. It works correctly.
But once I made the Updater app a Sandbox app, it did not allow me to replace the app.

Hi eskimo,
