Android Tips - Google Play Starts Showing Change logs on Apps Update Screen

Google play store is now starting changelogs on Apps Update screen

Google's new update is now getting very helpful for people -  With the version v8.0.22 update, Google Play will show you changelogs for the recently updated apps right on the update overview screen itself.

The advantage is, you will be able to see the changelog to any app update right from the update overview screen by simply tapping on the arrow. Notably, users earlier had to go to each application's listing page to figure out the new changes that were brought with the latest update.

Earlier this year, Google introduced a revamped interface for the My Apps section with the Google Play store to make it easier to browse through. The update brought along better organised categories and more utility than before. With the update, Google Play introduced the ability for the users to organise the list of installed apps according to various factors including Alphabetical, Last Updated, Last Used, and Size.

How it works

If you wish to force the update, you can do it easily. First go to Play Store. Click on"My Apps" UI.

The My Apps and Games tab has been shuffled around a bit: There is no longer a "Subscriptions" tab and the "Installed" tab no longer displays updates. Now, "Updates" gets its own tab and here you'll be able to see which app updates are available, how long ago they became available, and below that, you'll see your most recently updated apps and how long ago they were updated. The most recent updates available show up on top.

If you head to the "Installed Tab" this is where you'll see all the apps installed on your device. Now you can sort your apps by Alphabetical order, Last updated, Last used, or Size. This helps to find and uninstall apps that you might use infrequently or delete an app that will clear up some storage space.

It makes more sense to call the third tab "Library" instead of the previous: "All". This is where you can see a list of previously installed apps that you may have installed on another tablet or smartphone that used the same google account.
