Google Play is about to let you easily remotely uninstall apps from devices you don\u2019t have with you. The latest update to the Google Play Store will bring the change to app listings when it arrives on Android devices as early as today.<\/p>\n

In a fresh changelog posted<\/a> to the Google System Release Notes page, Google suggests that with a Google Play Store update rolling out November 10 as v48.8, \u201cusers can uninstall apps from the Play Store listing on their phone without using the device.\u201d While we aren\u2019t seeing this version yet on any of our devices, this would mean an option on app listing pages to potentially choose the device you would like to uninstall from and then do so.<\/p>\n

For a while now, Google Play has allowed you to install apps from your current device onto other devices through app listing pages<\/a>. When on a listing, you should see \u201cUninstall\u201d and \u201cOpen\u201d buttons at the top when installed on your device, followed by an \u201cAvailable on more devices\u201d section that lets you remotely install. In that section, we could soon see \u201cUninstall\u201d buttons next in the mix.<\/p>\n

This could be a pretty handy feature introduction. Up until today, if you wanted to uninstall an app from a device, you would either need that device on you or go through a pretty lengthy selection process in the \u201cManage apps\u201d area of Google Play. Once v48.8 of Google Play hits your device, you could remotely uninstall apps that you no longer wish to be active on any of your devices with a couple of taps.<\/p>\n

Let us know if you see it. To check for Google Play Store updates, open Google Play, tap your profile>Settings>About>Update Play Store.<\/p>\n
