How to stop apps from auto updating
I was to stop my apps from the market from auto updating if possible. Is there a way to make all of them stop doing it instead of having to go through and change each one manually?
When I set it up I checked auto update on all the apps, but now I am having to use my verizon mifi full time for my internet. It is using up a lot of my 5 gigs each month.
Thanks for any help

There are more drastic measures, but Titanium Backup from the market has a button especially for that. Stops all apps from updating. You must be rooted.
Re: How to stop apps from auto updating
This is simple I just worked it out Just follow these steps:
1. I know you may not want to do this but you have to download another app
2. once you've pressed install and when your on the second page of installing it quickly un tick the box where it says automatically update this app
3. although it says "this app" it stops the automatic update for every app
hope this helps
Re: How to stop apps from auto updating
When I open Play Store and hit options (the three boxes in the top right corner) and select Settings, there's an option called Auto-update apps. Have you tried unchecking this box?
Re: How to stop apps from auto updating
the boxes referenced don't exist in my google play....is there another way to stop the notifications and auto updates?
Re: How to stop apps from auto updating
to stop updates go to google play and hit menu button that is beside home button and then go to settings and then un-check auto-updates or for clear info u can find [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
Re: How to stop apps from auto updating
Go to upper right corner where small boxes are (for Apps) and click it.
Click on SHOP in upper right corner of next screen (where apps are)
Click three vertical boxes in upper right corner once shop opens.
Click settings
Under General is "Auto-update apps - uncheck the box.
There is also an Auto-add widgets and other settings you can change.
Hope this helps. I just found it!
