        @lakotaubp Ok, thanks. πŸ™‚

        Yes, I'm on the latest headline version (1.0.2).

        How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

          I just applied 2 updates for headline & invidious. The updates show in the Open Store app but don't show in System Settings >> Updates. So my only way to apply the updates was via the Open Store app.

            @opolork Updates in System Settings are only for the the OS. Application updates only appear in the App Store.

              No, some apps appear to update in update settings when available on the open store, like you can see on @Opolork screenshot above, but need to "search update" first.

                  In the system settings you'll see the update made directly from there.
                  So try this next time.
                  If you see an update from the open store, then do NOT apply it.
                  Go to the settings, it should appear there too and you can trigger the install too.
                  I bet you'll see a new entry after the update.

                  I don't know if it works for any app, but I bet it doesn't make a difference which app it is.

                  If someone tries this ; let us know

                    I don't know if it should work for any app but when i made post above, i had the corona app ready for an update on the openstore, so i tested not upgrading from store and searched it in settings app instead, but this update never prompted on system settings no matter how many refreshs i made.

                    Maybe an issue here.

                      @keneda Not all app updates appear in the Settings. The proper place to update apps is in the Open Store anyhow, or at least it should be, imho.

                      App updates appearing in the Settings or no are not related to the original issue the OP raised. So discussing these is better done in a separate thread.

                        Hi AppLee.

                        I tried that the last time. I saw the 2 updates in the Open Store app. Then closed it and went to the System Settings update section - they were no there. :man_shrugging:

                          So there is something to differenciate them, but I don't know what. πŸ™‚
                          Usually I do what @arubislander suggests. It's simple this way πŸ˜‰

                            I used to think it was apps directly connected to and installed with the OS that appeared in System Settings, Updates. All others in OpenStore. Still this is all a way off from the original topic now.

                              I expected to see the OTA-20 update in the System Settings updates today. Can others see it? I hope my OTA-20 is not being blocked somehow from the old 'Ubuntu Touch Version 2105' update. πŸ€”

                                      @opolork You need adb and fastboot installed on your pc/laptop. If you are running linux there are terminal commands, if windows 15 sec adb from xda developers installed system wide. Probably best if you switch on developer mode on your phone in System, Settings, About. Then connect your phone to pc with usb cable and grant permission in the pop box.

                                      Linux terminal commands entre one at atime

                                      Sudo apt update
                                      sudo add-apt-repository ppa:phablet-team/tools && sudo apt-get update
                                      sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
