Is it possible to disable updates on new phone?

[Former user]

I have a Note9/512GB (T-Mobile)

Love this phone!!

There are only a few apps I use and one of them is ACR Pro

Recently got a notice stating that the call recording will no longer work after an Android update (can't remember which one, but I think it said Android 9)

T-mobile just gave me a notice that it will perform an auto update to Oreo 8.1.0

I've read that this update may or may not affect the ACR app, but I'd rather NOT lose the ability to record my calls.

Is there a way to disable these forced updates?

ACR would work fine on android 8.1 but, you can disable updates after Enabling Developer mode on your phone https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/dev-options
