• Google’s Play Store offers remote app installation and now potentially remote app removal, making it easier to manage apps across connected devices running on Android.
  • Using the Play Store on smartphones, tablets, or desktops is usually quicker and more convenient than using it on devices like smart TVs or wearables, which may have limitations.
  • Remote app removal would be particularly useful for app management on those devices, and could eventually help remove unwanted apps from all your devices with a single click.
