Google Play Now Updates or Installs 3 Apps at Once

Google Play Store launched an exciting feature that enables its users to update or install as many as three apps or games simultaneously. This represents a serious improvement from the previous system where a user could attend to just a single app update or installation at any given time.

According to GSM Arena, the update has commenced its rollout in various regions, which also includes India. Until now, Android users used to experience frustrating delays as the Play Store handled apps or games one by one. This meant that users dealing with multiple updates or installations usually had to wait much longer.

That’s exactly what Google’s new feature aims to solve. Google, in April this year, introduced the ability for users to manage two apps at the same time. Now, with the latest update, users can update three apps or games simultaneously. That increases convenience and speed on a great scale. Once the user clicks “Update all”, Play Store updates up to three apps or games running parallel.

It also queues any other additional applications waiting for updates and displays their status as “Pending” until the currently updating ones are through. This means it is supposed to let the user know what’s going on with their updates in a way that minimizes total wait time.

Although this rollout was not officially announced by Google, many people are already enjoying it. This new feature will enhance the user experience by managing apps quicker and reducing the possibility of delays. However, the feature appears to be a server-side update. As such, even if you have the latest version of the Play Store app on your phone, you might not get this feature.

For the time being, it is available in India only, but not across all devices. Google should extend the availability to more regions and devices shortly. This enhancement is a further reflection of the comfort that Google is putting in for a user. And optimization of the overall experience in app management.

Simultaneous app updates and installations are a new milestone for the Google Play Store. This feature increases manifold the efficiency of multiple app updates and installations compared to the limitations experienced previously. Hence a welcome upgrade worldwide.
