This new feature of the Google Play Store will allow you to choose the best application
Table of contents:
When you need an application to play videos with sub titles and you don't know which one is the best, you have two options: download several from the Google Play Store and try one by one, or go through pages like tuexpertoapps and search for an article with the best applications to play videos. Well, that's about to change, because Google is experimenting with a new function for its app store with which to compare them to choose the most convince you.
At the moment, according to different information such as Android Police, this measure is still in development and testing phase. And it is that only some users have come across it in their respective Android terminals. An option that could be improved or even never reach mobile phones. Just wait and see if Google releases this useful tool
How to Compare Google Play Store Apps
The idea is simple. At least as Google is showing it to some Android users at this point. Just click on an application in the Google Play Store to navigate through its information page. Under the comments section, going down this page, you would find the function or section “Compare apps”. Here different applications of the same genre and with the same mission are listed to put functions and qualities in front.
This is a sliding table that you can move from right to left to see the list of features of different similar applications. Here the data of the evaluation by the users and the number of downloads are shown. But there are also other interesting characteristics such as the degree of ease of use of the application, if they also work without an Internet connection, the type of control they use, or even specific characteristics of this type of application: if they cast to other screens or the visual quality that they offer in the case of video playback applications.
In this way it is much more convenient to review more specific information about certain applications to choose a certain one. And everything stays on the same screen, so you don't waste time searching through related apps or suggestions from the Google Play Store itself.
To develop this benchmarking feature, Google has been asking users to rate the applications they have used through Google Play Store. Questions that now have their reason for being: if it has been easy to use the application, if it can be used without an Internet connection, a general assessment... Much more than rating the tool itself between 1 and 5 stars. Information that can now be used to create these comparative tables and help other users to opt for one or another application based on the data offered. Of course you have to know that this table of contents is there, under all the information of an application in the Google Play Store.
As we say, at the moment Google is only testing this feature, so we will have to wait to see if it decides to finally implement it in the Google Play Store as one more tool. And if you do it with this style and design, and in this very place that you are letting it show up during your tests.It certainly seems like an interesting addition to inform users who are less placed in the app market, even if they are not reviews or complete reviews. But it's always nicer than a gender-only recommendation. We will have to wait to see for ourselves the usefulness of this function.
