Some Android users are experiencing a persistent error notification indicating that certain Google applications, such as Messages and the Google app, require an update, despite no updates being available in the Play Store. This issue affects both stable and beta versions of Google Play Services across various devices. Reports include a Pixel 9 Pro and another device running different versions of Google Play Services, indicating the bug is widespread. The affected applications continue to function normally, and updating to Google app version 16.19.36 may resolve the notification issue, though the effectiveness of a newer version of Google Messages is unconfirmed. Inquiries have been made to Google for clarification.
