How do I stop facebook updating from within the Facebook app?

[Raynebow]

How do I turn off auto updates inside of the Facebook app? I have it disabled through the play store and my phone is showing that the app was updated through the Facebook app manager. If it helps, I have a LG v20. Facebook and messenger just updated yesterday, May 26, 2018. Thank you.

There's no setting for that, that I'm aware of. I'd double check the Google Play app to make sure auto updates are turned off. I also have a V20 and never had Facebook or any other app self update like that.

You have to disable the Facebook App Manager in your device's app settings, there's nothing in the app itself.

This has been annoying me for a while on my new Galaxy S8. I had turned off auto updates in Google Play, but Facebook and Instagram automatically update themselves. Strangely, FB Messenger does not. I noticed that the message saying "sucessfully updated" came from Facebook App Manager, so I have disabled that in my main app settings. I have not disabled Facebook App Installer (yet) so I'll see how it goes. https://m.facebook.com/help/android-app/812681095504818?helpref=faq_content
