I'm on an unrooted phone and F-Droid doesn't do auto-updates or even "update all". I have to remember to open F-Droid once in a while to click "Update" and then "Install" for each app, one-by-one.
I understand that it's probably Google's fault for not providing APIs/permissions but it's still terrible UX. I only use F-Droid when an app isn't available on the Play Store.
- eythian 7y agofdroid periodically automatically checks and notifies of updates to apps. You can also "Update all", using the button of the same name, but you will have to press install for each, due to the way Android works, which is a bit of a pity.
- kennydude 7y agoF-Droid isn't a "system app" so it can't even ask for permissions. If it was added as a system app in a custom ROM, then it'd be able to use the undocumented interfaces to install apps.
