Hi everyone, in

question about Google play which will let you understand about the Google play

Let’s start with 10
frequently asked questions about Google play.
1. How do I Access Google play on Android device?
When you get a new
android phone, Google play is pre-loaded on your device, you can open
Application and search for Google Play icon, purple blue red mixed color
triangle making Play button, yeah this is you got, Google play. Some of the
tablet may not have Google play pre-loaded but this is quite rare.
2. Do I need an Account to Sign in to Google Play?
And the answer is YES. When first you open Google play,
Google play Store will asked you to Sign in on it using your Google account, if
you don’t have one, you can create the new Google account instantly. This
simple and easy process is too fast and your device will remember you for the
next time.
3. Can I try Google Play apps on Android device?
Most of the Google
Play Apps are free. But some of the application is not so you can have option
of trying those application before you buy and decide if these application
worth buying. Note that, functionality of the application may be limited or trial
period or may be working fully but for short time.
4. Why most of the Application on Google Play is Free?
Most of the
developer are using free and open source code to develop the applications,
these applications most of the time are ad-supported. This means you may see
some advertising on application while using it. Developer/Author of those
applications monetizes their app by advertising. However you may stop seeing
those app by paying full version, that’s another way they can get worth.
5. Should I read Users review on Google Play?
The best ever way
to get to know the usefulness of the application is to known the other users
experience. On every app you can see the users review, this will help you to
decide If those applications are worth using/buying or trying or just waste of
time. More the users review more the like and standard of the application.
6. If the Android Applications Safe on Google Play?
Almost all the
Android application on Google Play is perfectly safe. But still you can make
sure it is safe on your side too, whatever application you use, require to
access some data, for example map application require location data and you
should allow it. But you need to think before you grant permission, for example
if a free game require to read your contact, be aware something is wrong. Check
the application website, certification detail and again, users review to be on
safe side.
7. Are Android Apps better then iOS?
Yes and No!! Some
of the application is better on iOS platform but most of the applications are
better on Android. Good news to know is most of the developer working on
Android is also working on iOS so backend gap is almost no. and most of the
apps are similar just some interfacing is different, and rest gap is minimum.
8. How many apps are on Google play?
Around the November
2012, there were more than 1,50,000. So no doubt you are able to find all the
utility you wish you just you need to read the users review and keep the
patient on finding and the best use the Google to find app on Google play.

ultimate attention to the UI and user experience of the applications, and
Google play is itself tweaked many times to make all the possible. Google play
will let you easily find the applications from the vast collection and easy to
select and download.
10. How do I update my apps from Google play?
Newer version of
apps are if available on Google play, your app will notify you, even some of
the apps updates in background and you don’t need to do it manually. Though
some application may ask you to do manually, if you think it is certified and
trusted apps go ahead or manually download newer version after good review.
