Which macOS utility allows a user to browse, download, and install applications and includes a setting to automatically keep those applications up to date?
The App Store app is the centralized marketplace for macOS software. It lets users install new applications and, under App Store > Settings, enables the Automatic Updates option so the system installs app updates without further user action. Finder, Terminal, and the Software Update pane of System Settings do not provide both installation and automatic application-update capabilities.
