Play Store usually and very carefully filters a long list of apps to compatible devices of its users. When Google Play came into the Android Market App on March 6, 2012, it was upgraded as the Play Store app. It allows all its users to download and browse music, television programs, movies, books, magazines, and other applications. It provides access to content on the Google Play Store. Google’s official pre-installed app on Android trademarked devices is called Play Store. But on March 11, 2015, Google introduced their very own, exclusive online hardware store known as Google Store where these type of purchases can be made. Previously, it also offered Google Hardware devices for users to purchase. Google play is also a digital media store, where it offers music, books, magazines and TV Programs. Google Play is also the official application store for the Android Operating System and it allows users to browse and download apps developed using the Android SDK and are published through Google. Since Android and Chrome OS belong to Google, they cater and offer all applications to the users. In iOS and the web, it excludes some applications while on Roku the user can only watch movies.

It works on platforms like Android, Chrome OS, iOS, the web, and Roku.
