Why can’t you schedule app updates to download overnight like with iOS updates?

I would like to schedule app updates to happen overnight. Currently app updates seem to happen when I’m using my phone.

iPhone 6s, iOS 11.1

If you set the updates to download automatically and your phone is plugged in and connected to WiFi at night, the app updates will download overnight. Or, you can turn off auto updates and then select "Update all" when it's convenient for you.
