Apple, iOS, you can prevent both updates to the OS and or apps.
You have to go into settings on iPad, iPhone and set apps to not auto update.
iOS, you will get flagged to update, and here you have to be careful not to select the update option, but instead update later. The OS will keep asking you but will not force an update. Only time I know that this can bite you is if you have to replace a iPad or iPhone under warranty as if the physical device is replaced you will get the most current version of the iOS.
Mac OS, always prompts you as to updates. Which is actually much better than win10. If you are on a mobile device laptop, win10 will ask you about updates since you may not have a good connection, where as if you are on a ethernet direct connection (albeit rare these days), win10 will just update when necessary during a shutdown. I know of no way to stop that process on a desktop, but there may be a setting somewhere. I tend to allow windows updates as sadly windows tends to need a lot of them, on Mac, I rarely update, unless it's something I am needing.
