Install fdroid basic, droidify, etc and use that to update apps. Your old apps will require one manual update to tell the system that the new client is handling the updates but after that the app will start auto updating. So its a pain but could be worse
Oh, that sounds good, I have to try
I believe, this requires Android 13. Your old phone might not have that...
It's not that old luckily, haha
Yes that's the right way. It works mostly without issues here since some months. Personally I have changed from Droid-ify to F-Droid basic since auto update stopped at some point with Droid-ify where it worked before. I have no idea why. Neo-store has issues in the stable branch with notifications.
