    This is a feature the app developer has built-in/opted into. There probably isn’t anything you can do to disable it.

      That’s what I suspected. Fucking infuriating.

        I was speaking in general. If this is about Sync specifically I see a “Show a reminder to update when available” options under General in the settings that may be related.

          Great find! It’s all coming together - android-delivered function that the app uses to trigger this google play popup and in this particular case the dev was nice enough to give an option to disable it. Thank you and everyone else participating in the investigation!

          Yup it can be disabled here:

          Settings shortcut: General > Show a reminder to update when available
