> apps that update by themselves

Maybe I'm too old (experienced) and cynical, but I always read that as "apps that are going to brick themselves". No thanks.

This one has bitten me hard on servers and desktop computers. And lately on mobile too. The last area were I still had automatic updates enabled.

The problem is, that one can't reasonably wait a few days on every update and look online for breaking changes. Especially with mobile apps that have sometimes a really unreasonable update frequency.

I still have not found a satisfactory solution for me personally.
