App refunds, protection from dangerous apps, and more: 5 things you can do Google Play Store
While Google Play Store remains the official market place of apps for Android users, it offers a lot more. For instance, it can save you from dangerous apps and help you manage them better. Here are five lesser-known features of Google Play Store

Bulk App Management Cleaning up your device is made easier, as the Play Store allows you to uninstall multiple apps at once. Through the “Manage apps & device” menu, you can filter, select, and remove several apps simultaneously to free up storage with just a few taps.

Remote App Installation You don’t need your Android device in hand to install new apps. By signing in online or using another device, you can remotely choose which connected device will receive the app and trigger the installation instantly.
Get Rapid Refunds Should a purchased app or other digital content not meet your expectations, you can quickly request a refund—usually within a two-day window. For other types of content like movies or eBooks, a week is often granted, provided you haven’t downloaded the file.
