Introducing
Google Play
Google Play is constantly
expanding with new
content on a daily basis. As
well as off ering over 850,000
apps and games, users
can now fi nd dedicated
music, movies, books and
magazine sections that
are fi lled with even more
content than ever (Fig 1).
Purchasing apps
With over 850,000 apps at
your disposal, you're never
going to run out of new
content to fi ll up your device.
What you'll notice about
some apps is that they're
free to download, while the
rest require you to part with
some cash before you can download them (Fig 2). The payment
process is simple through the Google Play store and, thanks to
Google's own Wallet system, users can keep their details safe while
purchasing as many apps as they like. Google does require you
to input your card details to purchase apps, but you can always
remove them by going directly into the settings menu within
Google Play after purchasing all the apps you want at that time.
All the paid apps require just a one-off payment to download
and each varies in its price. With some more of the expensive apps,
such as CoPilot Live, you'll fi nd that after purchasing the main app
