DeepIn2U, 01 Sep 2024Where did you learn math?!
3100 MB / 300 is 10!
He said "3 100mb apps", "not 3100 mb apps".
See the space in between "3" and "100".
Where did you learn to read?

News is worthless.
I STILL CANNOT UNINSTALL GOOGLE MESSAGES!
Until then I care less about how many apps install at once.
It's more critical to UNINSTALL apps!!!

Anonymous, 01 Sep 2024Nope, I've got the update and it's waaay faster. ... moreThat's strange. How it should be is that it should take approximately the same amount the time. Let's say the write speed is 300 MB/s. Installing 3 100 MB apps one by one or installing 3 100 MB apps simultaneously should take approximately 1 second. Why should installing multiple apps simultaneously be faster?

Anders, 31 Aug 2024This is should've been a thing 5 years ago. I can'... moreIts been a thing since 2011 I remember using Samsung Galaxy Mini using android 2.2 Froyo. Somehow Google decide to dumb down smartphones by making it update 1 app at a time (sigh)

I always remember since 2011 when use the Samsung Galaxy Mini, Android apps can be updated simultaneously without problems. Remember that it is a 2011 phone with a single core chipset under 1ghz, less than half gig ram, also less than half gig memory. Not really sure why our current smartphones become too dumb to update and download multiple apps at the same time until this update came

Hmm, I could see this being a welcome addition if you had a slower storage device(ufs 2.x or less), where installation of updates takes up quite a bit of time. Phones with ufs 3.0 and above will hardly notice the change as updates are already a breeze. The decision to allow more parallel installations compared to queueing them one after another allows underutilized read/write cycles to fulfil their next task instead of waiting.

Nothing new in that. The first two android version used to update all apps simultaneously without any problem. 😎😎😎 Google itself distructed that by updating in new android version of software. Now they are bringing it back to Market again.!!!
What's so special in it ????

Sergio Luiz, 31 Aug 2024Nice to see Google Play Store finally catching up with Apto... moreI mean, I appreciate googles implementation, but if a user can't put the da... phone down for half an hour, not sure who's at fault here. I've never watched for my apps to update, I've also never waited for them to update. But then again, I use my phone for work, not play, so I generally try to waste as little time as possible

SShock, 31 Aug 2024It's so funny high end phones have more RAM and cores ... moreYou can actually update 4 at a time. I just tried installing 5 apps at a time, it started downloading 4 apps and the fifth one was on pending.
I think 3/4 is a good number. I always get max download speed when I am downloading apps from play store, so downloading many apps at same time would slow things down. On the other hand, I think it would be even better if the 5th one starts downloading once any one app is downloaded but is still installing. This didn't happen, and it still waits for one app to completely install before starting the next one.

Finally. I have been resetting my s24u couple of times in last 2 weeks due to some issue, and this is what irritated me a lot. I understand we can't install all app at once, but at least do 2-3 at a time or start downloading the second one when the first one is downloaded and installing.
I don't know why this was not even possible till now, but yeah finally it's here.
