Usually, Samsung Galaxy devices are always ahead in getting new updates, but when it comes to the Google system update, there is no assurance when the latest update will come for the devices. This happens due to Google’s server limitations. For instance, the Galaxy S24 has received the January 2024 system update lately, but now Google is back on track and has started rolling out the April 2024 system update on ideal timing.
Google Play System April 2024 Update for Samsung Galaxy Phones
Last week, Google started rolling out the Play System update for Android devices, and now it has started expanding the update to Galaxy devices. For your information, with every new Play System update, the search giant provides some enhancements for Android devices through its built-in application upgrades.
With the April 2024 Play system update, Google has introduced some new changes under Google Play services. According to the changelog, under Account Management, if you are a supervisor user, you will be able to use a new dashboard to view parental control settings for wearables.
