What are the accessibility setting's for

I know it's a bit of a noobish question but I'm curious about the accessibility options.
I've always ignored the options cause it's always been grayed out and said that I needed to download the extra components from the market. Well going through the options recently I've noticed that there are now 2 apps under the accessibility settings (tasker and noled)
I just want to know what exactly they are there for and if I check one of them how will that effect my phone.

Q? Stop Market from Auto Update Downloaded apps

I noticed this morning (tnt 3.1.2) that some of my apps (like youtube) were updated automatically and then a notice popped up. I did go into market and change "notifications" to "no" but it does not say anything about turning off auto update. Am I missing something.
Thanks
Under Market settings for Notifications, I only have the options to:
1) Notify me
2) Do not notify me
I chose Notify me. I don't get automatic downloads.
On the apps that you do not want to get auto-updates, open them in the market app and make sure that the check box is cleared for "Allow Auto Updates"

That is the ticket! You have been thanked
Thought I'd point out I had a slightly different Market settings screen ('had' is the big word, it changed to be like 'normal' now with only the notifications options in it).
Before, mine had a setting above the notifications setting about Market filtering (I didn't touch it, though, was too busy and just thought I'd see what was there since this is the new Market screen).
It's gone now and can't get it back (I don't know what settings were under it).

Same thing happened to me! The filter was there one moment, and gone the next...
Perhaps a new beta feature not yet ready to be unlocked for all?
Market Autoupdate Bulk Toggle
This might help.

[Q] After Update - No Sync, Shortcut bar makes screen dark

Hello there! Here I am again feeling like the only one...
Since the update, none of my accounts sync - except the Verizon backup thing. Dropbox has the sync disabled and I can't enable it. Have looked in the app itself, under data usage, and under accounts, but the sync option is grayed out or not available. Email/Gmail say that they're enabled, but they don't auto sync.
And that new shortcut bar has caused a display issue with Internet and several other apps having a blue-tinted transparent "screen" which makes it difficult to read because it darkens the page.
I've done a lot of searching and fully expected to find a bunch of threads about this, but apparently, I'm using the wrong search terms or I'm the only one experiencing this.
Please help... I'm driving across country in three days and I really need to know my phone is working.

I think I can help you with at least some of your problems.
Your blue tint on your screen is probably due to power save mode being enabled. It's in settings, just make sure it's turned off.
For the auto sync feature, I think you don't have it enabled under accounts in settings. Go into settings again, look for accounts, click on Google, and make sure it's enabled. Click on the auto sync symbol, and make sure everything is checked that you want auto synced. To get Dropbox to auto sync, you have to manually add it it with the + sign in accounts.
This may not be exact, I haven't run a stock rom in a while, my layout may be different.
Thank you for trying to search first.

My Dropbox also displays the grayed out option in my son's since taking the update. I have however still been uploading my pictures. When I go into Dropbox and select the photos tab the second button from top left it will bring up all my uploaded photos.

Mate 9 Pro - Android Oreo - EMUI 8 - notification issues

After upgrading (non-root), I have several apps (Snapchat, Tidio, Shopify just to name some) where notifications don't work anymore.
I've been in contact with both Huawei and the app providers - but noone can solve the problem - accusing each other for causing the problem.
I've tried a bunch of thing including letting these apps override battery saver mode, launch them in background, never go hibernate etc - but nothing worked.
Does anyone have a solution to this?
when i upgraded to oreo my email wouldnt give me notifications or display the email either no matter what i tried. It only got fixed after a wipe and reset.
what's model of the device and where you purchase this phone ?

The model? As described in topic it's a Huawei Mate 9 Pro
Purchased through a national phone company.
i was having problems with my regular Mate 9 and notifications.
i tried a bunch of stuff, probably messed some settings up. But I went to
Settings > Battery > Launch
and changed it to "Manage all automatically"
then clicked on "Manage batch manually"
and checked all 3 boxes for All
and I think that fixed it. However it might be overkill, and I'm not sure what impact it has had on my battery yet

Thanks for writing. I did try that together with the other tweaks in the first place, but it didn't have any impact.

Well I am probably getting 90% of my notifications now, where as before I was getting like 10%.
So i am still trying to figure out what settings I need to adjust

Agree. I'm also down to around 10% now, I guess - mainly Shopify an Snapchat problems - but I hope they'll be sorted out with future updates.

Question Location - on/off toggle on working

Hey Guys,
Since I received my watch I have a very concerning issue that I could not find answer to.
If I go to settings -> location -> turn on/off toggle it does move when I click it, but then if I come back to the main menu and enter the settings once again the option is unchanged. This happens also after todays fresh watch update.
The same situation happens when I try to turn on/off location via drop down from notifications - it just doesn't respond.
Does it happen to your watches as well?
Galaxy Watch 4 44MM LTE

Daniel

Hi, have to tried factory reset;
has the problem been there since you got the watch: then assuming its new go where you bought it and show them the problem, you'll get new one or get new one
make sure to backup and wipe personal data and / accounts if they want to give you new device
Apparently factory reset has solved the problem and now its all good! I will leave the thread for people that may struggle with similar issue. Thanks flairepathos
I had the same issue (after I uninstalled Bixby via rbd, I think) and a factory reset fixed it for me. I have since disabled Bixby rather than uninstalling it and no issues with location toggle.
My original issue was exactly as you describe. If I tried to toggle it off from the quick settings nothing happened. If I went into the main location settings it would go off but then magically come back on again.
Bite the bullet and do a reset, you'll find it's fine after.
That's exactly the issue. I played with ADB and uninstalled Bixby as I don't need it but never thought it would impact location toggles But now, after the restart I'm not gonna touch ADB just in case.
How did you disable it on the watch?
