Automatic updates under iOS 7

• To activate this function, open the »Settings« and there the section »iTunes & App Store«. Move the slider for "Updates" to the right. At the same time, make sure to turn off the "Use mobile data" option to avoid generating unnecessarily high data traffic when you are out and about, especially abroad.
• You can also switch on the automatic updates when you display the usually pending »updates« in iOS 7 in the App Store for the first time. Then tap on "Activate" in the message shown there.
