How to auto update? (lemmy.world)

There was an update all button before this, but it takes me here. Any way to then not click on all of them?

I've had better success with auto-update using Driod-ify. At the very least the client downloads the updates automatically so it's just a matter of tapping install.

Droidify has auto update? How?

I suppose I wouldn't know if it was working properly but I do regularly still have to update apps.

I'm not entirely sure tbh. Like I said, mixed results depending on the app, but my working throey is that the session installer can automatically install apps that have the same signature and don't require any changes in permissions. I've seen some apps do in-place upgrades with no user touch but some don't.
