So you will be able to filter the apps in the Google Play Store very soon

Still in construction phase but coming soon applicationsof Google Play Store will be more and better ordered And no, Google is not working on new sections and categories in its content store, but on a simple filter to the user. Specifically, in a way of ordering all those installed applications Something that many have been crying out for years to be able to find these tools without too much effortThis is how it looks.

At the moment this is a dogfood version, a term by which the versions in are known development that they have in tests within Google itself This means that there is still time for them to arrive new changes, enough to taste it in first person. However, it finally looks like Google will make things a little easier for those rummaging through all your installed apps

A simple filter

As can be seen in the filtered images, now you only have to access the section My applications to find the usual selection of installed tools. In the upper right corner, yes, a filter has been added. With it you can sort all these applications with respect to various criteria such as: alphabetically, by size, by date updated, or by date used.

In this way, and with these criteria, the user could jump and navigate comfortably to see what are the recently updated apps, or find those you've used in the last few hours to prioritize the installation of their updates. Something convenient for those who do pay attention to when or which are the tools that have received new content. But this is not all.

More information about updated applications

Apart from being able to filter these installed applications, Google works in an enhancement for your update. It is about the presence of the update button even on the screen of the list of tools pending to be updated.Something with which you could update only certain applications without having to go, one by one, through the download screen. To do this, it would only be necessary to add an update button on the list screen. It's that simple and convenient to give priority to some tools over others and have all the possibilities at hand.

As if that weren't enough, this applications pending update screen would show new and interesting data. If we pay attention to the filtered screenshots, we could see issues such as the weight of the update (the MB that it will mean to update said tool), as well as theDate of last update

Elements that will help to know not only the space that is needed in the terminal's memory, but also if it is arecurring requirement of that applicationSomething that will make it easier for us to follow the updates of an application and know if its managers are concerned about improving it or only update it very occasionally.

However, these new features are still in version dogfood from Google Play Storethat they are testing internally at Google. We will have to wait, then, a few days, and maybe weeks, to see how all these improvements translate to the general public.
