What is the purpose of the Auto Update flag in the Store Application table sys_store_app_auto_update

[AlexR2]

This flag has been there since 2015. I can't find any documentation on it nor is it editable from the form or the list view.

In theory you may be correct, but in practice, it doesn't seem to be possible to change it, the option doesn't appear to ever be presented during install or upgrade from the store view, and if you filter out "Auto_update = false" on the list, there seem to be zero applications where it is set to true.

We were hoping this could be utilized for updating some of the low level apps. The number of apps that are being updated these days is enormous and doing them one by one is taking our admin team hours. As of right now we have 254 apps that are showing that they need updates.
