iOS 5 Feature Leaked - Over-the-Air ‘Automatic Download’ Of App Updates
It looks like Apple has leaked one of the features coming to iOS 5. A MacRumors forum reader has discovered the new feature in the My App Updates section in iTunes.
Apple had briefly added a line in the My App Updates section, which suggests that iOS 5 will bring over-the-air Automatic Download of app updates to iOS devices.

I'm on threes all you can eat data plan and it kicks 3G ass, be no issue for me :)

Becareful it might also auto update the firmmare and take away your jailbreak too. This might bea double edge sword.

Apple will support extra option as WIFI only or 3G also

I don't want it I've had bad experiences with app updates. I want to be able to control what apps get updated and when. I've purched an app called "downloads" a simple mobile safari ripoff with downloading capabilities. The main reason I got it was to download veidoes from YouTube and other sights. I tried the lite version and it worked just fine so I bought the full version from iTunes then a few weeks later apple changed their app rules. there was an update for it "bug fixes" downloaded it and the next time I tried the app instead of downloading a viedo it started just taking links to the viedo. So lesson learned don't trust apple

Sorry, I don't get it. I can already update apps wirelessly using the AppStore app. Don't see the difference. Now, for wireless sync of music, photos, etc., that's another story.

Catching up with Android .. haha !
-
Well Android has still lotsa things to catcha up with ya!

Lol this guy... have you ever seen a buddy with android actually try and update the same application you have on your iPhone? It's comical and takes them forever to search find then do. Way to unorganized and then they look how I did it on my phone and call theirs a piece of ****!

This will be a really cool feature but.. I like to look at what I'm getting in the update though so if this automatically updates then I won't be able to do that
-
I agree. I will still update through the app store

what happened to this feature, i'm not seeing it?
