Update splunk app from command line

I know I can install Splunk app from command line like this:

.\splunk install app \myAppPath\app.tar.gz -auth xxx:xxx

But is it possible to update an installed app using command line? How do I add 'update' argument to CLI. I can't find an example to perform such task.
