Android users will undoubtedly benefit from a Google Play Store change. This change aims to enhance the entire app download and updating process. Following this change, the store can download up to three apps or app updates simultaneously. It builds upon the functionality that the platform introduced in April, which allowed users to download up to two apps at once on their handsets instead of following the one-at-a-time process.
Google Play Store Simultaneous App Downloads
On the Google Play Store, users can download three apps or updates at once. The concurrent download functionality was first tested back in 2019. It rolled out the ability to parallelly download apps in March this year, speeding up the entire process. The latest change takes it a step further, increasing the limit of apps that one can simultaneously download to three.
For this, Android users must open the Play Store and navigate to the Manage apps and device page by tapping on the profile icon on the top-right corner of the screen. Next, they should select the Updates available page and tap on Update all. Three apps will be updated at once, with the rest of them reflecting Pending status. Google however has not officially announced this functionality. Several reports state that certain users were able to access it on multiple devices with ease. Such features are usually enabled server-side, meaning their access is automatically granted on devices.
Other in-development Play Store features
Google is testing several features for its Play Store. In July, reports stated that Google is developing additional functionality for Play Protect – its verification server based on cloud. Reports indicate that these features will make the process of sideloading apps more tedious.
