UniFi does not do this. At all. The Auto settings are the same as basically every other commodity AP out there -- look for the least noisy channel at boot, transmit full power, allow any client to remain associated regardless of signal strength.
UniFi has an ok tool for on-demand RF scans. It has all the appropriate knobs to tweak for optimizing coverage and encouraging devices with weak signal to associate with a better AP. But you have to do all of that yourself. Manually. Trial-and-error. There's absolutely no magic there.
