Smartphone users find it easy to download, install and make use of apps from Google Play Store rather than from Apple App Store.

Apple app store features only the most downloaded applications conspicuously while with Google Applications are featured based on user recommendations and ratings, which also make them discoverable.

Educational institutions, big and small organizations can deploy free Google Apps in bulk from Google App Store.
Charges for apps, subscriptions and in app products can be granularly controlled by help of Google Play Billing. This method is secure, quick and convenient and users in over 135 countries make use of it.
Google Play Developer Console helps users to publish their games and applications on all Android Platforms.
Distribution of games and apps on Google Play paves way for style, size, shape, position and layout of latest and ever evolving features like Android TV and Chromecast, Android Auto, Android Wear, Immersive Virtual Reality etc. Superior quality, trusted games and apps are designed for teens, kids and parents to suit their needs.
Google ensures that users particularly Android App Developers get optimal experience with help of their Developer Console Help Center. Support team can be reached for any specific issues related to transactions, publications, subscriptions etc.

Mobile app development companies have to learn how to utilize the quintessential features and potentialities of App Stores, be it Google or Apple.
