Can someone explain the setting or trigger for restricting updates while away from wifi?

I don't want to use up my data on 4G updating any apps.

I only want to update apps when using wifi.

Uncheck automatic updating then check for updates only when your on wifi... Other than that their may be a setting inside the play store settings

Thanks... after some fumbling around... this is the answer I was looking for:
"On your mobile device, go to Play Store and tap on Settings.
Make sure that Auto-update apps is checked.
More importantly, make sure that Update over Wi-Fi only is also checked."

Glad you found a fix

I was looking for ages to solve this same issue. Thanks a lot.

is there a way to allow apps to only update when charging? or is that getting too greedy

I keep auto update off. That way I can review an update first and then update, either over wifi or 4g.
