Google Play Store to Automate App Launching

Google Play Store may soon introduce a handy new feature to automatically launch newly installed apps. This could save you time and hassle by eliminating the extra steps of locating and opening a downloaded app.

The Details:

According to Android Authority, a recent APK teardown of Play Store version 41.4.19 revealed a potential feature called "App Auto Open." This feature, if implemented, would automatically open an app immediately after its download completes.

Currently, this is just speculation based on code analysis, and there's no official announcement or release date from Google. However, the report suggests the feature will be entirely optional, allowing users to enable or disable it as desired.

How it Might Work:

Upon a successful app download, a notification banner would briefly appear (approximately 5 seconds) at the top of your screen, potentially accompanied by a sound or vibration, ensuring you won't miss the notification.

While the information remains unofficial, we'll be sure to update you as soon as Google provides more details. In the meantime, check out our other recent news, including the Android release of the Hyper Light Drifter Special Edition.
