Avast allows you to set independent update preferences for virus definitions (protection updates) and the application (product updates). This means you can have one set to automatic and the other to manual.
While the publication date on the public support pages may be listed as 2022, the information regarding update settings is still valid and reflects the current options available in Avast Antivirus and Avast One as of late 2024 and 2025 releases. The core functionality for independent updates has not changed.
