After owning some apple products , i noticed one thing.

There is an eco system , the gadgets works perfectly fine around each other. But every god damn time the Updates drops , i have to push every update by myself...


Opinions on that?

Cheers.
 
A horrible idea. Devices are affected differently by updates. Updates are irreversible as Apple disallows downgrading. What happens when a user inadvertently hits “update all” and their older devices are obliterated?
 
You mean this? Or something else?

Just turn on automatic updates under "Settings/General/Software Updates" (whitch is the default setting for iOS/iPadOS/MacOS and I believe all the others, too) and that's it! Your devices won't update within the second, an update gets published, but they do update within a week or so.

If you're an update-junkie that needs the latest and greatest softwareupdate the second it gets released, you indeed have to do it manually. Besides that "automatic update" does exactely the job you're requesting.

What he means is he wants to be able to update all DEVICES he owns at once by clicking „update all“ on one of them.
How would anyone achieve that when theyre all ”separate” devices. Doesn’t make any sense.
Apple already give one an ability to auto-update all of their OS, not apps.
