The best thing about using an Android-powered smartphone is the fact that users get access to millions of fun mobile games and useful apps that they can download whenever they want. However, this all wouldn’t be possible without help from the Google Play Store. Therefore, we think it’s safe to say that Google Play Store is one of the most if not the most important components in the Android operating system.
Considering the fact that Google Play Store is responsible for giving users access to all the apps and mobile games that they like, no one should be surprised to find out that the Android parent is constantly pushing software updates for the app library. In fact, a brand-new one has just arrived and today we are going to cover everything there is to know about it.
Google Play Store 15.8.23 Update
The latest update for Google Play Store sports the 15.8.23 version number and it has been recently released by the Android parent. The update can be downloaded in two methods. The first one is to simply keep the smartphone connected to a stable Wi-Fi network and to wait for the update to arrive via Google’s official OTA (over the air) channels.
The alternative method of downloading the new 15.8.23 update for the Google Play Store is a bit tricky since it involves getting in the form of APK (Android Package Kit). The difficult part about installing updates this way is that users will need to manually download and install the update. In addition, APK releases can only be installed on smartphones that have the “Unknown Sources” option enabled.
Maintenance Release
The last thing that we want to note about Google Play Store’s latest update is that it is a maintenance release. This means that the update introduces under the hood software tweaks and bug fixes.
