The app update mode\ncan be set individually for each app and includes the following modes:\n\n- Default update mode.\n- High priority mode.\n- Postpone mode.\n\n### Default update mode\n\nIn this mode, the apps are updated automatically by default, when the following\nconstraints are met:\n\n- The device is connected to a Wi-Fi network.\n- The device is charging.\n- The device is not actively used.\n- The app to be updated is not running in the foreground.\n\nGoogle Play typically checks for app updates once a day, so it can take up to 24\nhours before an app update is added to the update queue. After an app is added\nto the queue, it will be automatically updated the next time the constraints are\nmet.\n\nYou can set a specific app to the Default update mode by referring to the\nfollowing [`Device`](/android/work/play/emm-api/v1/devices)'s `policy`: \n\n {\n \"policy\": {\n \"productPolicy\": [\n {\n \"productId\": string,\n \"autoUpdateMode\": \"autoUpdateDefault\"\n }\n ]\n }\n }\n\n### High priority mode\n\nIf you always want an app to be updated as soon as possible, after the developer\npublishes a new version, you can select the High priority mode for that app.\n\nWhen using the High priority mode, the app is updated as soon as a new version\nis published by the developer and has been reviewed by Google Play. If the\ndevice is offline at that time, the app will be updated the next time the device\nis connected to the internet.\n\nYou can set a specific app to the High priority mode by referring to the\nfollowing [`Device`](/android/work/play/emm-api/v1/devices)'s `policy`: \n\n {\n \"policy\": {\n \"productPolicy\": [\n {\n \"productId\": string,\n \"autoUpdateMode\": \"autoUpdateHighPriority\"\n }\n ]\n }\n }\n\n| **Important:** even using `autoUpdateHighPriority`, updates to apps with larger deployments across the Android ecosystem may still take up to 24h. Also consider that if the app is in use when the update is ready to install, the system will close the app to complete the process.\n\n### Postpone mode\n\nIf you want to pause updates for an app, you can select the Postpone mode for\nthat app.\n\nWhen using the Postpone mode, the app is not automatically updated for an\ninitial 90 days after it first became out of date. After this 90 day period, the\nlatest available version of the app is automatically installed using the default\nupdate mode.\nAfter the app is updated to the latest available version, a new 90 day\npostponement period will begin from the next time that the developer publishes a\nnew version of the app.\n\nYou can set a specific app to the Postpone mode by referring to the\nfollowing [`Device`](/android/work/play/emm-api/v1/devices)'s `policy`: \n\n {\n \"policy\": {\n \"productPolicy\": [\n {\n \"productId\": string,\n \"autoUpdateMode\": \"autoUpdatePostponed\"\n }\n ]\n }\n }\n\n| **Note:** The Postpone mode does not prevent your users from manually updating the app. During the 90 day postponement period, your users can manually update the app by visiting the Google Play Store on their devices.\n\nHere is an illustrative example of the expected update behaviour when using the\nPostpone mode:\n\n| Date | Status of App |\n|--------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| May 01 | The app is up-to-date on the device. Installed version: 1.0 Latest available version 1.0 |\n| May 02 | The developer publishes a new version (2.0). The 90 day period starts and will finish on July 31. Installed version: 1.0 Latest available version: 2.0 |\n| Jun 06 | The developer publishes a new version (3.0). The 90 day period starts and will finish on July 31. Installed version: 1.0 Latest available version: 3.0 |\n| Jun 11 | The developer publishes a new version (4.0). The 90 day period starts and will finish on July 31. Installed version: 1.0 Latest available version: 4.0 |\n| Jul 31 | The 90 day period ends. The app is added to the update queue and will be automatically updated according to the default update behavior, once the constraints are met. The 90 day period starts and will finish on July 31. Installed version: 1.0 Latest available version: 4.0 |\n| Aug 01 | The constraints are met and therefore the app is updated to the latest available version (4.0). Installed version: 4.0 Latest available version: 4.0 |\n| Aug 15 | The developer publishes a new version (5.0). A new 90 day period starts and will finish on November 13. Installed version: 4.0 Latest available version: 5.0 |\n\nImportant caveats\n-----------------\n\nWhile a specific app is in the High priority mode or in the postponement period\nof the Postpone mode, the following are ignored for the selected app:\n\n- Network constraints - the corresponding policy field for this is [AutoUpdatePolicy](https://developers.google.com/android/work/play/emm-api/v1/devices#resource-representations).\n- Maintenance window - the corresponding policy field for this is [MaintenanceWindow](https://developers.google.com/android/work/play/emm-api/v1/devices#resource-representations).\n\n| **Important:** Changes to app update policies don't affect updates that are in progress. Any policy changes will apply to subsequent app updates.\n\nThere is a known issue when a device is offline for an extended time and a new\nversion of a high priority app is published, it may not update automatically.\nTo ensure it updates when the device is next online:\n\n- Set the [`AppAutoUpdatePolicy`](https://developers.google.com/android/management/reference/rest/v1/enterprises.policies#appautoupdatepolicy) to `ALWAYS`.\n\n| **Note:** The issue causes [`autoUpdateHighPriority`](https://developers.google.com/android/management/reference/rest/v1/enterprises.policies#autoupdatemode) to not override user choice for auto updates, so that when the device comes back online it will update the app according to the user choice. If the user has disabled auto updates then the app won't update."]]
