Don't forget to enable the systemd timer to get notified of available updates automatically and periodically:
systemctl --user enable --now arch-update.timer
Don't forget as well to start the systray applet:
arch-update --tray --enable
If your desktop environment doesn't support XDG Autostart, you can enable the associated systemd service instead: systemctl --user enable --now arch-update-tray.service
If you're using a standalone window manager or a Wayland compositor, you can add the following command to your configuration file instead: arch-update --tray
See this link for more details.
Note that people running Wayland additionally need the qt6-wayland package for the systray applet to work properly.
