Public bug reported:

If "Software & Updates" > "Updates" > "Automatically check for updates"
is set to "Daily" as a user, I would expect it to check right after
start up, and perhaps every third hour?

Currently, you need to manually trigger a check by opening "Software
Updater", for example by hitting "Super" button, type "upda ..." and
select the grey "Software Updater" icon.

Also, maybe a new option "Every hour" could be added for those extra
security conscious?

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Release:	20.04
