Latest version of Google Play allows choosing applications that you wish to auto update when a new version is released on the Google Play market. In the past there were only two options; set auto update for all applications or for none. This new feature is a good change, if you were forced to disable auto updates on your favorite applications because you preferred not to receive auto updates on certain other applications.

This change in Google Play affects all the applications downloaded from Google Play in your device as this new change automatically sets all the applications into Auto-update mode. For 42Gears
