Google Play Store Introduces New Feature for Data-Saving App Updates

—

Google Play Store has launched a new feature to help users with limited mobile data plans update their apps without using too much data.

This feature is especially useful for people who do not have unlimited 5G access or have limited data plans.

It sets aside a small portion of the user’s monthly data to automatically update apps.

Here’s how it works:

– If you have previously updated apps using mobile data, the feature will use that amount as a guide.

– If you haven’t used mobile data for updates before, it will use the average mobile data usage of people in your area.

To activate this feature:

1. Open the Play Store and tap on your profile icon.

2. Go to ‘Settings’ -> ‘Network preferences’ -> ‘Auto-update apps’.

3. Choose ‘Update with limited amount of mobile data’.

This new feature is currently available to a select group of users and may not be accessible to everyone right away.

In addition, Google Play Store now also allows downloading two apps at the same time, which is part of their recent updates.
