Does the mobile app still auto connect to bank accounts when you open the app?

Several years ago when I first tried the mobile app, i found out that every time the app starts up, it makes a connection to my bank accounts to check for transactions. My bank limits the number I get per month and at the time, you couldn't change this setting. Just checking back in to see if this has changed. I would like to connect on the mobile app like I do on the desktop...manual One Step Update.
