Google Play Store can now simultaneously download multiple Android apps

After on and off testing, Google looks to have now rolled out simultaneous app downloads and installs on the Play Store...

Finally all that power won’t be wasted waiting for a single app download to finish and install.

Now, they should do simultaneous app updates. That’s the slowest process on my phone.

    Wait? What?! Android didn’t support this basic feature? iPhone did for quite some time now…

      Is that true? Last time I checked multiple icons appeared on the home screen at the same time, but the downloading progress bar will only fill up on 1 app at a time.

        This is what happens on my phone when I update apps at the same time:

          Ah well the article is referring to installing apps not updates, that’s not even included in this. But maybe the apps install at the same time now too.
