As The Verge reported this week, there are a lot of improvements that Google brought to the Android platform. As part of the November 2022 Play System update, the users will be prompted to install an update following an app crash.
The new changes will be effective on the PlayStore v33.3 update. It will cover Android and Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets.
Oftentimes, a bug is simply a reason why an app suddenly closes in an instant. However, some factors might contribute to the said event, including the presence of malware and more.
Google wants to lessen the app crashes that take place by allowing you to get the most updated version of your software or game.
Of course, the update only highlights the outdated apps, so if your app is updated, there's nothing to worry about, and you won't receive a prompt.

Google Wallet Support Improvements
The new functionality on the Google Play Store will come with other features, including the expansion of Google Wallet support in smartwatches in several countries. Moreover, the revamped parental controls are expected to arrive, as well as part of the update.
Speaking of Google Wallet, Tech Times reported that Fitbit Sense 2 and Versa 4 users might soon use the functionality on their fitness trackers.
Google says that it aims to add contactless payment options for smartwatch users who want to pay for goods or services through a simple swipe of a card.
The new countries benefiting from this improvement are Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Mexico, Slovenia, Malta, Kyrgyzstan, Liechtenstein, Georgia, Armenia, Cyprus, and Luxembourg.
The Google Wallet support will also expand its features for mobile ticket payments. That said, passengers could now pay their airfare via the cashless mode of payment.
Some of the supported ticket centers include Cinemaxx, Ticketmaster, Thaiticketmajor, Humanitix, Oztix, and Ticketex.
In a quick series of events, Google surprised everyone when it rebranded Google Pay into Google Wallet. Thanks to this change, it's now more convenient to pay for products without releasing physical money from your pocket.
