How to download and update multiple apps from Play Store simultaneously

Play Store

Google has finally updated the Play Store with support for multiple app downloads. The feature enables users to initiate downloads for multiple apps at the same time without waiting for the first app to finish downloading and installing.

With the new update, Android users can initiate three downloads from Play Store and the change also applies to the pending app updates.

Why the feature is important for Android users

Downloading and installing apps from the Play Store has traditionally been a cumbersome and time-consuming process. Until now, the Play Store only allowed for one app to be downloaded or updated at a time. This meant that if you were downloading or updating multiple apps simultaneously, the Play Store would process them sequentially, at its own pace—finishing one app before starting the next. This limitation often led to frustration for users.

How to download multiple apps from Play Store

To be able to download multiple apps from the Play Store, make sure to update the Play Store app on your Android smartphone.

Once you’ve updated the Play Store, start browsing for the apps that you want to download.

Open the first app page and then hit the “Install” button.

Then, move to another app and press the “Install” button

Repeat the same for the third app

All three apps will download and be installed at the same time.
