Exciting news for Android users! Google Play has recently introduced a requested feature; the ability to download apps at the same time. This new feature allows users to enhance their download speed by downloading two apps which is especially beneficial for those with high-performance devices and fast internet connections.

The All New Google Play Feature

In 2019, Google tested this feature. It was not widely available at that time. Now it appears that parallel downloads are being rolled out extensively significantly improving the user experience.

Previously users had to wait for one app to finish downloading before starting another one causing delays in the process. With parallel downloads now enabled both apps can be downloaded concurrently utilizing the device’s processing capabilities and internet speed efficiently.

While this development is a step it’s important to note that this feature currently does not apply to app updates. App updates still occur sequentially rather than simultaneously. This decision could be attributed to how updates are handled on Android devices. When using App Bundles where only necessary parts of an app are downloaded during updates instead of the entire application.

Reducing the size of downloads may help incorporate the components into the current application can be time-consuming especially when dealing with numerous updates, which could put a strain on the capabilities of the device.

Even though updates are left out being able to download two apps at once marks progress for Android users. This functionality speeds up the process of acquiring apps making downloads more efficient. You can easily check if your device has access to parallel downloads by looking at the Google Play notifications. If you see notifications for two ongoing downloads, then you’re experiencing the new functionality!

The introduction of parallel downloads demonstrates Google’s dedication to improving user experience in the Play Store. While app updates remain single-threaded for now, this update sets the stage for further enhancements in download management within the Android ecosystem.
