http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/play-store-policy-change-04-26-13-01.jpg Google just released a new Play Store version (4.0.27) that, at first glance, contained only very minor tweaks – except for one little thing. A new policy change will no longer permit any apps to update without going through the Play Store’s internal system. That won’t affect most software, but there’s a notable exception in Facebook, which recently added auto-downloading to the latest version of its Android app, allowing it to bypass the Play Store. The new policy seems designed to put a stop to that kind of thing, but you never know – it could be just be a coincidence.
