Hey everyone, welcome to Northern Viking Everyday
If you're new to this channel
Make sure you hit that subscribe button and also hit that Bell notification so you don't miss out on upcoming videos
So today I'm gonna show you how to turn off the auto updates in your Facebook app for Android
You are not gonna believe what you have to do to do this. So let's get right into it
So actually made a similar video last year and a few things have changed since then I have had a few subscribers
mentioned to me that if they had something called the Facebook manager app installed on their phone the option to disable your
Facebook auto updates was not there. So the first thing you're gonna want to do is
uninstall the Facebook manager app
If you do have that installed that's gonna hinder you from finding this option in your main Facebook app
Now the second thing you have to do and I can't believe that this is what you have to do
I don't know if it's a glitch in their software or if they did this on purpose
But you actually have to find where the setting location is in the app
Back out and then go back in and all of a sudden
The setting for the auto updates to shut it off is there so I'm gonna show you that I wouldn't believe it for myself
Except I have it on video for you as well as I thought it was my eyes the last couple times
I updated Facebook and I checked this and it wasn't there. Then I went checked it again, and it was there
So let's go ahead and show you how this is done
First off you're gonna want to open up your Facebook app
So go ahead and push on that and up here in the top right hand corner. You're gonna see three lines
so go ahead and click on those that'll take you into the settings area and
scroll down until you see
settings and privacy
Push that and then you're actually gonna have to hit settings again, there's another Settings button right here, so go ahead and push on that
Now you're gonna have to scroll way down keep scrolling
All the way down until you see media and contacts
There it is, go ahead and push on that
And
This is where the setting should be to
Turn off the auto updates and it is not there you can see it is missing
So now back out
Just hit back at the top left and then click on media and contacts one more time
And
Lo and behold app updates is here
So, I don't know if this is a glitch
This is how I found it and the last three times. I've updated my facebook app. That's been there like that
so I thought it was my eyes at first, but it seems to be
Happening every single time. So click on that and you're gonna want to hit the
The top one which is going to turn off the auto updates
now one thing you're going to want to keep in mind is that you also need to go into Google Play and turn off the
Auto updates in Google Play as well. So make sure you do that. It says that right there
There's also another one. We're gonna turn off Facebook update installed. It's a notification as well as the Facebook
update
Available button. So click that off if you don't want to see those and that's actually how you do it
That's how you turn off the Facebook auto update in the app
So I'm not sure if Facebook did this on purpose or if it's a glitch and there may be other ways as well
Then I don't know about to turn off these auto updates
So I'd love to hear from you what you had to do to turn off the auto updates for your Facebook app on Android
