***I do all my installs offline, manually ONLY...!!!

When you already have installed apps on your tablet and you see and download an updated version of those apps, should you first uninstall the existing app then install the updated version or can you simply install the updated one over the top of the now older version and have it auto update itself...???

I cannot believe how fast some of these apps are updated. It's much worse than Windows (who swore..??) apps. I no sooner install an app and after I blink, whoops there is a newer version ready to download... Up 'til now I have been uninstalling the existing versions, then installing the newer but these updates happen so quickly amongst all my apps, I am wondering if there's a quicker way...

I am most concerned with some apps that are wrapped around the operating of the tablet, like google related apps, which are always making their presence felt... I don't want to uninstall any of them in case they don't function properly when updated...

My OS is 5.0 Lollipop...

Thanks,,
Al...
