We all know how tedious it can be to download applications on our Android device, especially if your internet is not very good and the app is heavy. With the new Play Store in action, now we will be able to install up to two applications at the same timean improvement that can be very well received by fans of this operating system.
On the other hand, although this sounds like a great novelty, the truth is that the App Store Apple has been implementing it for a long time. Best of all, we will be able to install up to three apps at the same time. But, as the saying goes, “Better late than never”, so it is always good when the friends of the big “G” work to improve our daily lives with technology.
This is how simultaneous installation works in the Play Store
There are nuances in this new Play Store functionality, and the first thing that needs to be mentioned is that it only works when installing New applications. That is to say, when updating them, it will continue waiting for it to be done one by one, although we do not rule out that it will eventually end up reaching this section. As we are seeing in the images, here we see how Google Slides and Google Sheets They are being downloaded simultaneously, and we will be able to view them both in the store and on the main screen.
This offers us another perspective if we exceed the initial quantity of “two”, since if we want to install more than this quantity, it is necessary that these end to start a third download process. Despite this minor “inconvenience”, it will undoubtedly speed up the process, something that will be of great help to us when we format our device for some reason or simply acquire a new one.
It is important to mention that so far it has only been seen working on the devices Pixel with Android 14 and in the Play Store with the version 40.6.31. However, we do not rule out that the simultaneous installation will reach our Smartphone at any time.
