Play Store v6.7 Is Rolling Out With The Ability To Join or Leave Betas

A new version of Play Store has just started rolling out, while some users will let it go unnoticed, Play Store v6.7 allows users to see when they’re in a beta testing process, leave/join and even provide direct developers feedback from the Play Store client.

The  features of this new version of play store is the ability to see beta status at the top of app listed when users are enrolled or join/leave a beta test from the app listing, at the bottom. It also came with the options to provide the developers of a beta app with feedback rather than leave it in a public review. It labels unreleased apps at the top of it listings  so that users can know which applications are currently in beta testing.

Ability to join or leave beta testing only works if and only if the user joined the necessary G+ community or the developer doesn’t require such a prerequisite. In this new version of Play Store it displays a message at the top, alerting users if they’re running a beta version. It also notes if an app is unreleased, which means that it’s only been in a private beta with no public version.

This new version of Play Store also allow users to leave feedback for developers of apps so they don’t have to post a public comments that everyone can see. Its layout is exactly as that of public reviews, which might seem a bit confusing to some users.

Developers need the feedback in order to enhance app efficiency and come up with features that users actually want.Developers can now easily increase the number of those who are testing their applications, since the v6.7 makes it easier for users to join beta testing and communicate with developers.

The latest version of Play Store, v6.7, started rolling out yesterday, but it may take some time before it’s available to all users.
