I have no interest in snaps, flatpak or appimage. I can't stop my phone's apps from updating whenever they feel like it without breaking many of them. I can and do control software installations on my machines.

If you're on Android

Play Store > Settings > Network Preferences > Auto Update Apps...

You can also set the option to not update automatically on individual apps. When they show up in the Updates Available tab, click the hamburger menu next to one and there's an option to turn off auto-updates. Handy to stop YouTube automatically updating and wiping YouTube Vanced!
