14 March 2025
The current split is 70%/30%, so developers can expect more cash from app and game sales, once this change goes into effect.

At any rate, GI's Galaxy store deals are still better than the Play store ones. And sometimes, even against third party authorized sellers like Codashop.

For example Fortnite was removed from Google Play store, but it remained in the Galaxy store. That's just one recent example, but more serious things can happen. Not maintaining the Galaxy Store would be irresponsible.

Also, their Galaxy Store is a curse for their low ends (notably the A/M/F series below 3x), as something as simple as a Galaxy Store update would crash the phone entirely.

If you want a truly smooth experience, get the TapTap version, which is actually better.

                                That's why now and for 20yrs Google has a VERY tight partnership with Samsung.

                                    Well done Samsung. 20% is better than 30%.

                                    I have a question. How come my US model Samsung has a Galaxy Store that refuses to open in another country than where I live (China)? I'm traveling in Europe and it isn't working here.
