Slider for Wi-Fi is set to never.
Slide it to middle or right and for interval slide it to right.
Go to main page and pull from page topto down to refresh.
Recheck.
means, no autoupdate on Wi-Fi
means, no autoupdate on mobile data
means, no autoupdate
- huh!
- main page - pull to refresh
to update index - so there is no specific term
used by fdroid for fetching latest
metadata of packages? - was debian user, assumption
is dowloading metadata for update
and installing latest version for
upgrade!

If the right position is update, and middle position is “never”, what happens in the left position?
Left = never
Middle = when clicked
Right = always
Err, meaning? & where?
INCORRECT: automatically fetch updates
CORRECT: automatically fetch upgrades
- or am i only one?

Are we lost in translation?
The text above each slider explains its current value.
Slide them left right, multiple times and see how they change and what they say.
F-Droid won’t do any action “automatically” if you choose 'manual" or “never”.
You want autoupdates? Slide them to the right.
Manual refresh is separate.
That legend appeared to be a sub-heading for the whole function rather than an explanation for one particular slider position, hence I never tinkered with it. Now that I know different I am tempted to fiddle with all sorts of settings. A less ambiguous design would be helpful for these adjustments.
It’s a legacy slider, yes, not yet touched by modernity.
- if possible share meta issue number
here to follow reorganisation
of settings!

Sorry, but I have no idea what that means.
