Every month Google updates its Android services on a broad spectrum of devices, including smartphones and tablets, Android and Google TV devices, wearables, Chrome OS portable laptops, Android Auto cars and more.
The updates mainly concern bug fixes and optimization in the Android operating system, Google Play Store, and Google Play Services. The company has now posted its March 2022 changelog, detailing some of the changes to the aforementioned services.
The most notable changes involve the so-called Play-as-you-download feature in the Play Store. Google wants users to be able to start playing games as soon as possible while the rest of the package continues to download in the background.
This feature is not new, as it was detailed in previous updates, but it seems that Google is not happy with its current state and wants to improve the functionality further. Other minor changes concern users’ privacy, and various enhancements to the Play Pass and Play Protect services. Check out the full changelog below.
