Android users have experienced the frustration of waiting for apps or games to install or update one at a time through the Google Play Store.
However, recent developments indicate that Google is significantly enhancing this process. Starting in April, the tech giant introduced the ability to install or update two apps simultaneously. Now, Google has further improved this feature by allowing users to install or update up to three apps or games at the same time.
This new capability is particularly beneficial for users who have multiple apps with pending updates. When you select the “Update all” option in the Play Store, the platform will now begin downloading and installing updates for three apps or games concurrently. Meanwhile, the remaining apps in the queue will display a “Pending” status, indicating they are waiting for their turn in the installation process.
The introduction of this feature is a welcome change for Android users, as it reduces the waiting time associated with app updates and installations. By enabling the simultaneous installation of three apps, Google is streamlining the process, making it faster and more efficient.
This is especially useful for users who frequently update their apps or install new ones, as it allows them to get back to using their devices with minimal interruption.
While Google has yet to make an official announcement regarding this update, reports suggest that the broader rollout of this feature has already begun. Users in various regions, including India, have reported seeing this functionality on their devices.
However, it’s important to note that this update appears to be controlled by a server-side switch, meaning not all devices will receive the feature immediately, even if they have the latest version of the Play Store installed.
As Google continues to enhance the Play Store experience, this latest update marks a significant step forward in improving user convenience and efficiency. Keep an eye on your Play Store for this feature, as it could soon be available on your device.
