If you desire update control, you can disable automatic updates per app in the Play Store as well as F-Droid.
Play Store:
- Tap on your user image
- Tap “Manage apps and devices”
- Tap “Manage”
- Find the app in the list and tap it
- Tap the three dot menu in the upper right
- Uncheck the checkbox “Enable auto-update”
F-Droid:
- Tap “Settings” on the lower right
- Tap “Manage installed apps”
- Find the app in the list and tap it
- Tap the three dot menu in the upper right
- Check the checkbox “Ignore all updates”
If you haven’t disabled automatic updates, you cannot complain that you did not ask for an update. You did implicitly agree to unsupervised updates by not opting out.
