Google Play Store: a world of entertainment on your cell phone

Google Play Store is a digital platform developed by Google that works as a virtual store where you can download applications, games, music, movies, books and other content.

This app is preinstalled in almost all cell phones with Android operating system. If your mobile doesn’t have it, you can download it from Google's official store for free.

Download and compatibilities

  • Storage space: The app requires about 20-30 megabytes (MB) of storage space (depends on the phone and app version).
  • Device compatibility: it is compatible with most Android devices, including smartphones, tablets and some wearable devices such as smartwatches and Chromebooks.

How Google Play Store works

Once you launch the App, you will see a predefined list of suggested content, from social networks and productivity tools to games and entertainment apps.

You can browse through the suggested content, or search for a specific app using the search bar at the top.

When you decide to download a content, simply tap on the “download” button and the file will start downloading on your mobile while showing you the download percentage.

Before starting the download, Google Play Store provides you with essential information to decide whether or not to start the download.

Functionalities that deliver an excellent experience

  • Know everything about your download

In the app description, you will be able to see reviews from other users, the weight of the file, the type of audience it is aimed at, the number of users who have already downloaded it and information related to the security of your App. This way, you will be able to download content with total peace of mind without the risk of viruses or inappropriate content.

  • Archive apps and free up storage space

If the “Archive Apps” function is enabled, your device will notify you when there is no space available, and you will be able to temporarily delete applications from your device without uninstalling them completely. The app will be removed from your device, but will remain on your Google account. If you ever need to reinstall it, you can do so quickly from the “Library” section of the Google Play Store.
