Google is shipping out a new System Services update, which affects general Android features that are powered by Google Play Services, as well as the Google Play app itself.<\/p>\n

This month, Google doesn\u2019t have a huge list of changes, but mentions \u201cprompts to allow access for nearby devices\u201d under Device Connectivity, new developer features (pretty vague), as well as the ability to adjust controls for personalization and data collection directly in Google Play.<\/p>\n
