Google gets with the times and allows multiple app updates at once

Google is reintroducing the ability for Android users to download multiple app updates simultaneously on the Play Store, a feature that was removed nearly a decade ago. This update will allow users to download three new apps at once, enhancing the user experience. The gradual rollout of this feature is expected to reach various devices, including the latest Pixel 9 Pro. The initial removal of the feature was speculated to be due to limitations in smartphone write speeds, but advancements in technology now support simultaneous writing of multiple large files. It is unclear whether the update is server-side or a direct update to the Play Store.
