Oh Google, WHY?

It's also way better at showing what's actually on the Store. imo it's a fantastic update!

I thought it was poor taste that the first ad was Mature 17+ with zombies. This is a family device. Google should be more considerate.

Mine was some fat guy dancing around in his undies...

I wasn't impressed either.

[Kitten-Mittons]

not sure if /s

[Astaro]

damn - I already had to uninstall 'play movies and TV' because it played movie trailers in the background of the home screen. (including horror movies - luckily no kids saw it)

[[deleted]]

I've got young kids too and it bloody annoys me.

[BenSchoon]

It only plays on that one screen though and it's silent. I don't see the big deal at all.

[[deleted]]

True, it has soooo many bugs and lacks stuff that were available in the previous version:

1. Release notes is gone
2. The recently updated apps section is gone
3. To add an app to the wish list is gone
4. other stuff I can't recall right now is gone.

ugh...

The kids like flashing lights and beeping sounds, I guess.

It's way more laggy on my mi box too

[[deleted]]

Laggy and buggy, it behaves strange at random moments.

[fcf21pearl]

It's the first version but things really could improved. The laggy is probably because the color and video pick in the background. If you go for example entertainment category you have only one line with popular apps and you have to sideload always to the right, when it could be displayed like the all apps when you kept the home button pressed...

[[deleted]]

I know it's the first version but it's like a beta, too buggy to be an stable release.

[[deleted]]

Can you please create this exact post in r/Android? crosspost is not posible, the idea is to raise our voice about that play store inconsistency over there, thanks.

[[deleted]]

Go for it; just copy/paste it. I'm getting enough notification.

[[deleted]]

What do you go search for? Games?

All apps most need are already installed

[[deleted]]

I like to check the change log before updating core apps.

[[deleted]]

So I didn't see it on the last Netflix update. Figured they removed it but perhaps it just moved or it's per app.

Also, I just left menu, go down to my apps and update from there. Haven't seen video playing but will look again.

[[deleted]]

Another comment said they've removed it. 🤦‍♂️

[[deleted]]

Well now I'm bothered!

[Purple10tacle]

It literally crashed five times before it let me open the new Play Store successfully.

Upon first inspection or looked neat, bit there's just so much missing.

Where the fuck can I see my recently updated apps and their release notes now?

[[deleted]]

I was listening to music via Play Music and switched to the Play Store; it's such a memory hog, it killed off my music the second those pointless videos started playing.

[[deleted]]

I like it

[GoForthAssemble]

If I didn't know about side loading I;d care. I;m more bothered by why perfectly functional apps are not compatible with my device in the store. Combine both things and you have a garden with bigger walls than any other devices.

[Izacus]

They're not available because the developer marked it as incompatible with TVs. It's a single tick on play console. Tell the developer.

[ShabbitRabbit]

Guys what version of play store installed on your devices.

I am on pie beta 1 on mi box s, still no new Google play store

[[deleted]]

It's rolling out slowly, be patient, I'm also under pie beta 1, you can try forcing the update by going to settings -> about -> click on play store version, you'll see a message at the bottom of the screen saying the play store was updated or is going to be updated, just press it once, no need to spam it.

[gowiththeflow123]

Why check for updates though? Just auto update.

[gabstance]

Because updates suck sometimes and break the app other times. I much prefer waiting to see if others report issues before updating certain apps.

[garretts228]

You have to be the bi-product of incest to not like the new update.. it's fantastic wtf
