News & Reviews:   Google Play

In case you didn’t know, Google Play Games PC is a PC gaming platform by Google. As of now, there are over 3000 games on offer. The platform also supports Play Pass for subscribers and Play Points for supported countries.

Google Play Movies & TV will be the latest service and application that the company will send to the graveyard, with the app no longer available on Android, iOS, Roku and most smart TVs. Now, Google has pretty much revealed when the app will stop being supported and how those who have bought media through the app can see them moving forward.

A few hours ago, some MAE app users spotted a new Google Pay advertisement. At the time of posting this news, the advertisement has since then been removed but still, what goes online stays online. 

Previously, we reported on how OpenAI released the ChatGPT app on iOS, enabling iPhone users to use the powerful AI tool. Now, the same app is officially coming to Android too, with OpenAI announcing that it will be rolling out in the final week of July.

Boost today launched its integration with the world’s largest mobile gaming platform, Google Play which is powered by Boost’s cross-border payment platform. The new feature allows users to instantaneously purchase credits both on the Google Play Store and within the respective gaming and streaming apps through seamless and secure in-app transactions.

Earlier this year, we reported on how Google launched the Google Play Games for PC which as the name would suggest, allows users to play Android mobile games on Windows PC. Fast forward some 8 months later, the platform is still in beta but with some improvements, including being available in more regions as well as requiring a lot less demanding PC specs to run.

Mobile games are often free to play but in return, they often have advertisements playing in the background here and there. Some of them are annoying so with this, Google has decided to finally update its policy in the Google Play Store for how developers show ads.

Today, Google is celebrating 10 years of Google Play. To celebrate the occasion, the company has listed down a few of its favourite milestones and offered 10x points of purchases in the store.

As more people start buying digital content and use e-wallets, there's a need for alternative methods to get our precious e-currency. For some of us, we use these to buy games or in-game items from Google or iOS. So it's great that Boost will now let us directly buy Google Play codes.

With the ongoing fiasco between Epic Games and Apple for Fornite, Google has decided to make its stance on the matter clear. The company has announced that developers that have apps on the Google Play Store must use Google Play's billing system. In other words, apps that bypass it will not be allowed.
