Ps4 does not auto downloading

My PS4 does this too. I leave it on rest mode all weekdays so if any update is available it will be ready on weekends (I've a shitty ISP). I've got all options check, got PS+, ps4 is primary with my account. Yet it does not download anything automatically while on rest mode. When I download from my phone to the PS4 it always works. But when I pre order a game it never auto downloads. My problem usually is that I actually have to manually start the download, even if it says it will auto-download. Also, if there is a day one patch, I actually have to be logged in to have it update. level 1. under_the_boab_tree. · 3y.

I do not want to automatically download images for All Incoming Messages, but instead only from Safe Senders. Only SOME emails from Safe Senders domains/emails display the "(i) Click here to download pictures" note in the header (and hence the "Download pictures" option). Those emails also show the "Download picture" on the right.

This is correct. OP, you are turning on your system before it automatically checks for updates. Having every PS4 download an game update as soon as they publish it would kill their servers. It is downloaded in the early morning and staggered based on location and time zones. When I download from my phone to the PS4 it always works. But when I pre order a game it never auto downloads.
