    Now your XL Routes Static application should be updated on Heroku and your service should experience no interruptions.

    Heroku keeps a current document on how to Remove, Downgrade, or Upgrade Add-on’s that should have all the relevant and current steps to work with your Add-on’s, like XLRoutes.
