While the Play Store is undoubtedly the best app store on Android, it’s not just used to download new games or services to your smartphone. It is also an important hub that brings together all available updates. It’s a particularly handy hub, as it allows you to install the latest versions of its applications with just one click. Provided it works properly.
Indeed, there seems to be a minor issue with Google Play right now. This page dedicated to updates suddenly decided not to display new versions of system applications. It is the latter that are affected, as third-party applications appear normally and can be updated without any problems. One wonders if this is actually a deliberate change on Google’s part.
Your system apps can’t be updated from Play Store
After all, this behavior appeared a few weeks ago without any communication from Google on the subject, as noted by our colleagues at 9to5Google, who have already noticed this phenomenon for the Settings Services and Google Wi-Fi Provisioner apps. In addition, since these applications are relatively obscure to the majority of users, some are absolutely reluctant to update them when they appear in the center; That would push the Mountain View company to remove them.
But a few clues still seem to point to the error. Specifically, the Play Store triggers a notification whenever an update is available. However, when you click on it, the relevant application does not appear on the screen, which is still strange. Not to mention the fact that users who have not enabled automatic updates will be particularly harmed, as well as potentially putting their smartphones at risk.
