I keep getting asked when I turn on plex on my Apple TV if I want to update my server to the latest version.

I always select tonight except when it pops up as I’m selecting something, which leaves me annoyingly waiting for the update to complete.

Is there a way to tell it to always update at night and stop asking me?

Sort of. These are actually 2 different things. Your PMS has it’s own setting for if ti will do an auto update or not.

The Plex iOS app does it’s own check. Unfortunately, you can’t turn this off so you may still get the message if the app detects the update before your PMS actually does it.
