Google Play and You!
It hasn’t been long since I’ve moved from Amazon to Google Play, but there seems to be something that needs to fixed. I’m going to talk about some of the things that Google needs to do and possibly help you out in the same process! I won’t say that I regret the process but there are a few things that could be changed and also fixed. I’m really am hoping that someone reads this and implements these changes in Google and thus making for a better user experience for everyone.
Show’s don’t show up automatically!
When I buy a season on Google Play for shows, it doesn’t show up. I have to clear the cache for the Acer a200 to be able to download the newest episode(s).
1. Visit Menu > Settings > Apps2. Tab over to “All”3. Select the Play Store app, and then tap “Clear cache” and “Clear data”Please note that after clearing the Google Play Store app data, if you have set a PIN code and/or a content filter, you’ll need to re-apply these settings[Google Play]
This seems to be a lot of trouble everytime you have a new episode that comes out. I waited a full 24 hours before contacting them about the next episode, so I know that if the app is going to check for new updates it should of done so in the 24 hour period. It didn’t, and I had to do those steps to download the next episode to my tablet.
It would be nice if Google play would clear the cache every 8 hours or so or when you load it up. This is a failure on the part of Google to think about customers needs.
Internal Memory and External Memory!
Something else that seems to be a problem is the ability to use the External SD card to put all my movies or shows on. I bought a Sandisk Ultra 32 Gb Micro SD card [Affiliate Link] for that one reason, to be able to use it to keep my shows on when I download them. Google doesn’t use this card and keeps all my movies and shows on the internal memory card because it think it is the external Memory card. It sees it as the sdcard and not anything else. The External Memory is consider is considered External SD on the tablet and thus nothing will be put on it.
It would be nice to use the tablet the way I want and not the way they want me to use it. I have been looking for ways to fix this and if I find one, my readers will be the first to know but I am hoping Google reads this post and fixes these two major problems that I’ve seen so far.
Do you know of something that needs to be fixed with Google Play and you want my help, you can always Contact me and tell me what the problem and maybe I will talk about it on my website.
