Time-Saving Update: Google Play Allows Four App Installs at Once

In an exciting update, Google Play Store now allows Android users to install or update up to four apps concurrently.

Key Details:

  • Concurrent Downloads: Previously, users could install or update three apps simultaneously. Now, this number has increased to four for some users.
  • Availability: The feature seems to be gradually rolling out, as many devices still support only three simultaneous downloads. It’s unclear if Google will make four the standard.
  • Benefits: This update is particularly useful for users who manually update apps or set up new devices frequently, as it reduces waiting times.
  • Automatic Updates: Users with automatic updates enabled or those on slower networks may not notice a significant change.

This development aligns Android more closely with iOS, which also supports multiple concurrent app downloads. Users experiencing this new feature are encouraged to share their device and location details.
