Apps not automatically updating

[eds817]

I have most of my apps set to automatically update but most do not. I can go to Google Play and see apps waiting to be updated or if I restart the phone some apps will update.

Is there something else I need to do?

There is nothing else you need to do. I have had the same issues, but it just takes time on some occasions. Usually within 48 hours it should get pushed to your phone in my experience. It feels like JB does check more often than previous versions of android as JB seems to get them the next day, but older versions take a couple days..Up to a week or so i've heard.

I set up the Play Store to alert me with a Badge Notification (those small #'s on the App icon itself) like on iOS for when there's an update for an App ready to be downloaded.
