The old name was klik, then changed to portable linux app finally settled on AppImage.
Which is a good thing, since all application are "apps" now.
Well it solves a lot of issues.

Snappy and Flatpak are memes, replacing distro repositories with a super-distro repository which is especially retarded
Appimage is completely decentralised as it should

Because it is just easiest to use for both packager and user.
* for packager: just run a script that compile and copy every dependencies to a file
* for user: download, chmod +x and start using it
snap and flatpak offers nothing over AppImage.

Can it update?

Yes and no.
Yes, you can download a newer version.
