It is always important to stay up to date with the apps that you have on your phone. With the latest version of Apples iOS software update, you dont have to worry about going through and updating all of the apps yourself anymore.
According to Tech Republic, “iOS 7 also brings to life the ability to auto-update the applications on your phone. This happens in the background and will save you the time and hassle of opening the App Store and running the updates from there.”
Keeping your apps up to date will allow you to access the latest features offered in the app.
