The month of August has been plagued Android updates from Google, but the big news updates have been smart. This new feature was already presented as a innovation of the near future in the Google I / O last June, but I think most did not imagine that this were so near future, it is a breakthrough that sure must have all excited.
So, now, if we update an app from the Google Store, you no longer need the full version of the application, now Google Play is able to recognize the differences between the installed version and the update and transmit only data relating to these. That means it will be much faster, comfortable and efficient updating applications, especially those applications or heavier games, which are starting to be frequent, thus saving data traffic.
An example of what this means is evident in the update of Instagram yesterday, it already could be appreciated the difference, because if you update to the latest version from the previous one, you need to download only 3 of the 13MB that occupies the complete application, more than 75% saving of data.
This new feature is available to all devices with 2.3 or higher version of Android, and that’s one of the great joys that give us all, because it means that the vast majority of devices can now enjoy the advantageous change.
