Why You Should Not Install Every Update Of Android Apps

Android is perhaps the most used smartphone operating system with almost around a million applications. According to a survey conducted in 2014, 80% of the smartphones in the world are running android operating system. With such a wide usage of android apps, updates are bound to release every week. However, today we’re going to tell you why you should NOT install every other update that android releases. There are a lot of reasons why we made this statement and we’ve listed them all below.

Insecure app permissions

Android is said to be the most insecure operating system amongst every other operating system.

This is because Android is an open licensed operating system which means the applications demand way too many non-useful permissions. Each release of every app demands more and more permissions of your personal information which you shouldn’t be providing.

Bigger App Sizes

Each of the app that releases its updates adds a new feature to the app. This new feature might not even be any useful to you but it will take up more of your phone’s internal memory.How would you like if you install the latest Facebook app which is 50-55 mb in size and the new features are the ones that you don’t even use? Exactly! It’s useless to you.

Useless updates

There are many times when you update an app and you lose one of those features that you used to love about your app.

That’s when you know that you shouldn’t have updated the app and there’s no way you can go back to the old version. Always check the change log in the Play Store and unless it’s a major update don’t bother updating your app and losing your favorite features.

Unstable versions

There are always apps that release new app updates that are unstable on many android versions and that may even be dangerous to your phone.

That’s where you should be smart and not update your app. I’m sure your work with the old app must be going great as well. Keep using it as it’s better to update and risk your smartphone’s stability.

Hence, there are a lot of reasons why you shouldn’t be updating your android apps. Sometimes it’s better to stay patient and use the apps that work best with your phone. We’d advise you to do that instead of doing something stupid. Stay safe and don’t update your android applications!
