Automatic updates of apps is a frequent request I hear from users. If they use Firefox Nightly for Flatpak which gets updated every day, they just get tired of updating it manually.
I have no opinion on automatic updates, but we can never in any circumstance prompt the user to install updates every single day. That's crazy. If they want to check daily, fine, but prompts are supposed to be weekly.

In my opinion, we shouldn't even prompt the user to update apps if updating the app doesn't require a reboot - we should just update. Android updates apps automatically if you're on wifi and charging, I think it works well. Users can disable auto-update for individual apps if they need to.
This is the kind of thinking that made my laptop blow through my cellphone data plan limit in about fifteen minutes while I was tethering.
