12 Backup and recovery in Android Lollipop
Automatically updating apps
Some online marketplaces update your apps automatically. Some keep a record of your purchases as well as
your last synched settings. If you should need to perform a recovery on your tablet, this record will be
available to retrieve all of your settings, favorites, and apps.
NOTE:
The auto-update feature is a setting in the online marketplace, not on your tablet. The online
marketplace available to you will vary based on your tablet and country.
Manually updating apps, widgets, and the operating system
HP recommends that you update your apps, widgets, and the operating system on a regular basis to the
latest versions. Updates can resolve issues and bring new features and options to your tablet. Technology is
always changing, and updating apps, widgets, and the operating system allows your tablet to run the latest
technology available. For example, older apps and widgets may not be compatible with the most recent
operating system.
If you download the latest versions of HP and third-party apps and widgets, the operating system will
download updates automatically and notify you when it is ready to install these updates. For more
information:
1.
Go to http://www.hp.com/support, and follow the on-screen instructions to select your country and your
product.
2.
Follow the on-screen instructions to access your Android operating system software.
