The Android parent has released a plethora of updates for the Google Play Store over the years that improved the service’s performances through new features, bug fixes and software tweaks. In fact, the Google Play Store is equipped with so many features that most Android users don’t even know about them all. Here is where we come in because we have rounded up the top three Google Play Store tips and tricks and we are going to present them today.
Google Play Store Tips & Tricks
- Wishlist
Even though there are thousands upon thousands of free apps and games, the best ones need to be paid for. Paid apps receive full fledged developer support and this is what makes some of them quite expensive. Nonetheless, our first tip of the day is to start using the Wishlist and add all the apps that might interest you so that you are always up to date with all the latest discounts and deals. Follow the next steps to add an app or game to a wishlist: Open the app – Tap on the “+” icon at the top.
- How to Filter Content
If you have a kid that sometimes picks up your smartphone to play games on it, then we highly recommend that you activate the right content filtering. This can be done by following the next steps: Access the Play Store Settings page – Tap on Content Filtering – Now, simply choose the maturity level that is appropriate.
- Password Restrictions
As we mentioned previously, people who have kids might give their smartphones to them so that they can play games. However, no one should do this before enabling password restrictions on app purchases because the kid can always buy the most expensive game he sees. This can be done by following the next steps – Access the Google Play Store page – Tap on Passwords – Type in the Passcode and then press OK.
