How to update minikube latest version?

Question

When I command minikube status it shows but with a GitHub link says that update minikube. Can you tell me how can I do this in a simple way?

$ minikube status
⚠️  There is a newer version of minikube available (v1.3.1).  Download it here:

To disable this notification, run the following:

apiserver: 
kubectl:

The script below removes everything (pods, services, secrets, etc.) that are found in Minikube, deletes old Minikube file, install latest Minikube file and then enables ingress and dashboard addons.

#! /bin/sh

# Minikube update script file

minikube delete && \ 
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/bin/minikube && \ 
sudo curl -Lo minikube https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/latest/minikube-linux-amd64 && \ 
sudo chmod +x minikube && \ 
sudo cp minikube /usr/local/bin/ && \ 
sudo rm minikube && \  
minikube start &&\

# Enabling addons: ingress, dashboard
minikube addons enable ingress && \
minikube addons enable dashboard && \
minikube addons enable metrics-server && \
# Showing enabled addons
echo '\n\n\033[4;33m Enabled Addons \033[0m' && \
minikube addons list | grep STATUS && minikube addons list | grep enabled && \

# Showing current status of Minikube
echo '\n\n\033[4;33m Current status of Minikube \033[0m' && minikube status

(To make use of dashboard addons, execute the command of minikube dashboard on the terminal)

Sample terminal output after script run:

While updating for my Ubuntu 18.04 I did following

curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/latest/minikube_latest_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i minikube_latest_amd64.deb
minikube version # to check the version
minikube start # start minikube
minikube addons list # then check addons

For linux it saves it states at home .minikube directory so no need to delete previous minikube and then enabling addons it will automatically pick the addons and enable once it read states from .minikube directory.
