How To Turn On Auto Update On Ps4

Hey there, fellow gamers! Are you tired of being stuck in the digital Stone Age, manually updating your PlayStation 4 every time a new game or system update drops?

Well, fear not, because I'm about to unlock a secret that will change your gaming life forever! Prepare to enter the age of AUTOMATIC UPDATES!

The Great Auto-Update Awakening

Imagine this: you're all hyped to jump into the latest AAA title, you grab your controller, and BAM! A wild update screen appears. It feels like the gaming gods are personally conspiring against you, right?

But what if I told you that this doesn't have to happen anymore? What if I said you could wake up every day with your PS4 ready to rumble, updated, and ready to take on whatever digital world you throw at it? Let's make it happen!

Step 1: Power On and Dive In

First things first, fire up your trusty PS4. If your PS4 is already on, even better!

Now, grab your DualShock 4 and navigate to the land of settings. This is where the magic happens, folks.

Step 2: The Settings Sanctuary

Scroll to the left until you spot the sacred Settings icon (it looks like a toolbox, for the uninitiated). Give it a click.

You've now entered the mystical realm of system configurations. Don't be intimidated – we're just here for a quick detour.

Step 3: Unleash The Update

Scroll down, keep going and locate System. Click into it.

Look around, look around! There should be Automatic Downloads. Bingo!

Step 4: Check Those Boxes, Baby!

This is the moment of truth. You should see two checkboxes that are begging for your attention.

One of them should say something along the lines of "Application Update Files" and the other "System Software Update Files".

Check those boxes like you're marking off lottery numbers, then sit back and smile. You did it!

Step 5: Power Save Mode - the unsung hero

Believe it or not, your PS4 can't magically download updates if it's completely powered off. That would be sorcery, and we're not wizards here.

Head back to Settings, look for Power Save Settings. Then navigate to Set Features Available in Rest Mode.

Make sure that "Stay Connected to the Internet" and "Enable Turning on PS4 from Network" are checked.

Congratulations, Update Master!

You have now ascended to the level of Auto-Update Grandmaster! From now on, your PS4 will automatically download game updates and system software updates, even when it's chilling in Rest Mode.

No more surprise update screens, no more waiting around, just pure, unadulterated gaming bliss. You're welcome!

Go forth and conquer digital worlds, knowing that your PS4 is always up-to-date and ready to rumble. Happy gaming, friends!
