How to manually update Google Play Store on your Android device

Did you know? Google Play Store, a must-have app store for your Android phone or tablet where you discover new apps and games, receives updates from time to time and is not dependent on Android OS updates. Google regularly pushes updates to the Play Store to polish the app and offer new features. If you have a stable Wi-Fi connection, you’re most likely to receive updates to your Google Play Store and use the most up-to-date release; however, there are times that you may want to manually update to the latest version. In this short tip, we’ll show you how to manually update the Google Play Store without downloading any APK files.

Steps to manually update the Google Play Store

  • 1. Open the Google Play Store and tap on “Your Account and Settings” at the right top.
  • 2. Tap on Settings.
  • 3. Tap to expand “About Play Store, build version, device certification.
  • 4. Next to the Play Store version, you’ll find “Update Play Store button”
  • 5. Tap to see if there’s any update. You’ll find either your Play Store is up to date, or the update will be downloaded in the background and the Play Store will be restarted.

That’s it! You now have the most up-to-date version of the Google Play Store on your device.
