My Pixel 5a is not rooted, and I have F-Droid running on it, from which I've installed several apps.

Do theses apps automatically update in the background without you having to do anything?

Which is a huge pain because you can’t just spam click update or “update all”. You have to one by one wait for them to download and for the android UI to come up and then wait for the install to finish before starting the next one
