Hi,

although I've enabled app auto-update in tvOS settings, my Apple TV 4K (2021) won't do so. I have to manually search for the app in App Store and click on "update". That's no big deal, but do You have a solution to get that auto-update feature working?

it works, but it's kinda slow.
it might take a day or 2, but it does eventually happen on it's own

if I see a notice of a release notice for a new version that has a feature or fix I want, then I might search for it and update, otherwise, I'll just let it do it's own thing.

Thanks for the tip. But it seems to take even longer than 2 days. One app-update was released on march 7th (amazon prime), but it still didn't update automatically. Let's see, if it will ever work ;)

Auto updates have not worked for me for several weeks. The only way I see for now is to go to each app and manually update.
