Google Play Store has long been a leading app store for Android users with millions of downloads of apps, games, books and movies.
During development, Google has constantly improved its interface as well as added features to optimize the user experience.
However, there is a little-known but useful tip that saves significant time when operating on this platform, according to Indian Express.
Since August last year, the familiar Search bar, which is located at the top of the screen, has been moved by Google to the navigation bar below, in the form of a button.
This change causes many users to press twice if they want to open the search box for other applications or content.
For those who rarely use the Play Store, this may not be a big deal. But for people who regularly download, update, or download apps, this repetitive operation becomes inconvenient.
Few people know that just a small tip can shorten the intermediate step. When opening Google Play Store, if you double- tap the Search icon in the middle of the bottom bar, the search text box will appear immediately.
Thanks to that, users can save one touch and access a huge amount of content on the Play Store faster, including not only the application but also books, movies and other services.
In addition to this small tip, Google has just added a Automotically open when ready conversion button.
As the name suggests, the feature will start the app right after the installation process is complete, instead of forcing users to find and reopen it later. This is considered a convenient improvement for those who regularly install multiple applications at the same time.
In another development, Google has recently been embroiled in a lawsuit with Epic Games regarding competition regulations on the Play Store.
Google's request to suspend the ruling that forced it to open its competing app stores has been rejected by the court.
This means that in the near future, third-party platforms such as Aptoide or TapTap may officially appear on the Google Play Store, opening a new era with more options for Android users.
It can be seen that, in addition to major legal changes, Google continues to refine the user experience with small but practical improvements. And sometimes, it is the seemingly simple tips that help save hours of operation in today's busy digital life.
