It's generally better to keep auto-updates on so that you can get a timely security fix in case there's a vulnerability found in an app you're using—but whether you should enable or disable auto-updates comes down to personal preference.
In general, you should try to keep your apps updated whenever possible — however, turning off automatic updates may help you save on space, data usage, and battery life. Once you turn off automatic updates on your Android device, you'll have to update your apps manually.
Automatic updates allow users to keep their software programs updated without having to check for and install available updates manually. The software automatically checks for available updates, and if found, the updates are downloaded and installed without user intervention.
Software updates may help fix bugs before they happen. These are some common types of bugs. Electronic devices also need regular maintenance and routine updates to run their best. Having the latest patches can help prevent software from crashing.
For desktop based applications, what are best practices to perform auto updates? Currently, we download all files, then copy and register (if com dll) to their respective directories.
I looked at Google Chrome update method. It seems that it first downloads a zipped file into a directory, and then unzips all the files. Also, they have a setup application which seems to be used to do the update. Additionally, they create a directory mapped to update version like 1.0.154.43, but they keep the old version's directory.
