Why trust Greenbotpromises a bunch of nifty features are coming to the ay Store, like streaming preview versions of apps offering you virtual reality content.
That future isn’t here yet, but we can glance into the crystal ball thanks to an A teardown by Android lice of the version 6.9 update to the ay Store.
The app streaming feature, which works with a few games through search, is coming to the ay Store. The concept is that you can play a few levels of a game before downloading the entire title. It works already in search, but most people tend to go right into the ay Store when looking for an app which kind of limits the appeal. A sample of how this looks is below:
Apps like Fruit Ninja can be streamed directly from search.
To launch the streaming you’ll see a “try now” button. This isn’t the same as Android Instant Apps, which pledges to launch any type of app with no lengthy download installation required.
so, there’s evidence of how virtual reality apps will appear inside of the ay Store when VR hits the Android mainstream. th the Daydream project, will likely feature VR content right inside of ay for both Daydream Cardboard.
The ay Store should update automatically on your phone or tablet. If you’re the impatient type, you can grab it now from A Mirror.
The impact on you: There won’t be a major change to your day-to-day Android use with this update. However, it shows that the ay Store will soon do more than just serving as a static storefront for apps. It’s a good differentiator for to have. The future just needs to get here sooner.
