Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Been bitten before.
When I bought my Xperia, I knew to shut off mobile data until I got home and could configure the WiFi. Glad I did, or Google Play would've downloaded half my mobile data allowance that evening almost without so much as a by-your-leave.

Some programmers in Google-land need to spend a few months on a metered, low-data account so they know what much of the world has to live with.

New Looks like it's a setting on the Play Store on KitKat.
(Dunno if this was not an option before.)

Start the PlayStore. Click the 3-bar "hamburger" icon on the left. Click Settings. Under General, click the 2nd line (mine says "Auto-update apps - Auto-update apps over Wi-Fi only"). Change it as needed.

I sure hope that L has that too!

Thanks. HTH.

Cheers,
Scott.
New Interesting!
I hadn't gone looking since I figured out how to make Google Play work over WiFi only (it's in Settings>Applications). But then, I don't like it auto-updating either.
