Enable Automatic App Updates in the Galaxy Store

Configure your Samsung Galaxy Store settings to allow all downloaded applications, including Adobe Acrobat, to update automatically in the background.

Automatic app updates are primarily controlled by device-level store settings rather than individual application preferences. Enabling this globally ensures you always have the latest features and security patches for your installed apps.

1
Open Galaxy Store Settings

Launch the Galaxy Store application on your Samsung device. Tap the Menu icon (three horizontal lines) located in the bottom right corner, then select the Settings gear icon at the top right.

2
Configure Auto Update

In the Settings menu, tap on 'Auto update apps' under the General section.

3
Select Network Preference

Choose either 'Using Wi-Fi only' or 'Using Wi-Fi or mobile data' to enable the automatic update feature for all your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are my apps not updating automatically on my Samsung phone?

Applications may stop updating automatically if your device is low on storage space, currently in power-saving mode, or if the auto-update setting in the Galaxy Store or Google Play Store is set to 'Wi-Fi only' while you are on a cellular data connection.

Can I enable automatic updates exclusively for Adobe Acrobat?

The Samsung Galaxy Store manages automatic updates on a global level for all apps. However, if you installed Adobe Acrobat through the Google Play Store, you can open its specific app page, tap the three-dot menu in the top right, and check 'Enable auto update' for just that app.

How do I update Adobe Acrobat if the Galaxy Store isn't working?

You can alternatively update the application using the Google Play Store. Open the Play Store app, tap your profile icon in the top right corner, select 'Manage apps & device', tap on 'Updates available', find Adobe Acrobat, and tap 'Update'.
