Update Play Store and Galaxy Store apps on your Galaxy phone
Sometimes app developers will release updates to fix bugs, make improvements, or just give a general tune-up. Keeping your apps updated is the best way to make sure you always have the latest features and the best performance. You do not have to worry about keeping track of updates for every single app on your phone, however. You can turn on auto-updates and let it do it for you.

The Play Store is like a supermarket for apps; you can find all apps developed and published through Google.
TIPS
In some rare cases in Android 10 or 11, a manual update may fail to complete. Here are additional steps you can take to resolve the issue:
Open Settings on your phone. Tap Apps, and then tap Google Play Store. Tap Storage, and then tap Clear data. Read the information, and then tap OK.
Note: Doing this will clear some of your Play Store settings like parental controls, auto-update preferences, etc. Please recheck these settings after following these steps.
Galaxy Apps has exclusive content made just for Samsung devices. You will need to update these apps separately from your Play Store apps.
When apps update automatically, you will not have to give updating them a second thought. Follow these steps to turn on Auto Updates in the Galaxy Store:
Let the Play Store take care of updates automatically so you do not have to worry about it.
If an app updates, but you like the old version better, you can uninstall the update to go back to the previous version.
Note: This option is only available for some preinstalled apps.
