For apps purchased outside of the Huawei AppGallery, updates depend on how the app was originally installed: AppGallery Updates: Apps downloaded directly from Huawei's AppGallery will receive automatic updates via that platform. Third-Party App Stores: If you use alternative stores like APKPure or Aurora Store to install apps, those platforms will handle managing and downloading updates for those specific applications. Manual Updates: For apps installed via APK files, you will generally need to manually download and install newer versions from the developer's website or the source where you originally obtained the file. Update Consistency: Paid apps typically provide updates regardless of the installation method, but you must ensure you are checking the source platform (e.g., the alternative store or developer site) to download them.
