With an estimated 3 million apps in the Play Store, choices between competing apps can be overwhelming. Comparisons might help alleviate decision overload.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s unclear when or if this feature will roll out to a wider audience or if support for more than just media apps is coming. Version 22.4.28 seems to be the version of the Play Store that is capable of displaying this new app comparison section, but it\u2019s possible a server-side component determines whether or not your device will show it. Nonetheless, this will be a welcome addition whenever Google wants to roll this out to everybody.<\/p>\n<p><small>Via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/2020\/10\/28\/google-compares-similar-apps-head-to-head-in-new-play-store-experiment\/\">Android Police<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>setTimeout(function(){!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');fbq('init','1137093656460433');fbq('track','PageView');},3000);<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more like this article, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Technology category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/59039\/google-play-store-testing-ability-to-compare-apps-directly\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Google Play Store Testing Ability to Compare Apps Directly \u2013 Review Geek&#8221; BigTunaOnline\/Shutterstock The Google Play Store is testing a feature that lets you directly compare multiple apps.
