It’s “Google App Wednesday” and as so often the story goes, today is
the day we see Google update a handful of their apps in the Google Play
Store. We already told you guys about the latest Google Camera update (there’s also Google Wallet update that adds the ability to use multiple Google accounts), but it’s the Google Play Services update that is also catching our eye.
Announced via the Android Developers Blog,
Google Play Services 4.4 introduces a handful of new APIs developers
can begin taking advantage of to better their apps, everything from the
new Google Maps API with embeddable Street View, to a new Location API
that is able to detect when a user is running or walking. Games Gifts, which was added last time around has also been improved, allowing for user to send multiple
gifts in a single go. Also making it easier to purchase in-app items, a
new Mobile Ads API allows user to make purchases directly from in-app
promo ads (no need to forward them to a different screen for purchase).
With Google I/O just around the corner, we don’t imagine we’ll see
another update until then. In the meantime, developers can hit the
source link below to learn more or join in on the conversation by
visiting the post on Google+. Cheers.
