Actually I am not sure this still exists on Marshmallow, I keep now having to download updates daily and just searched for the auto update facility and cannot find it, it maybe me having only updated about three days ago so will look further, not sure if this a Play or Android problem. _________________ Moto G5s Plus, Sygic 17.4.8 |

Can't remember how I did it, but I have a non auto update set on Sygic. When I hit the 'update all' button (for those apps that I have removed auto update), it warns me and asks if I want to update it, to which I tap 'No'. |

Hi all
This is just to confirm that TT have been as good as their word and abandoned the original Android app. It definitely does not work with Marshmallow  |

to allow auto updating of certain apps only, it is simple
in Google Play go to settings
Under General, click auto-update apps and change to 'do not auto-update apps' if it is not already set to this
Next go to 'My apps & games' further up the selection
Under the 'Installed' tab, select the app you wish to enable auto-update on
when you get the screen with the uninstall/update (or open) option, in the top right hand corner click on the menu icon (the 3 dots)
enable auto update
You can also switch this around and have all your apps auto-update and then disable certain apps from auto-updating by unclicking the auto-update box on each app |

Find the app in question in the Play Store. Tap the 3 dots at the top right. Tick or un-tick 'auto-update'
