What's in this version:
You now have the Installed and All tabs you can swipe between. The former one is what we used to have before - it lists all apps installed on your device. The latter lists all apps you've ever installed in case you want to download them again or travel down the memory lane. This is quite handy, and I've seen this list before in the Play Store on the web, so it's great to get it here in the mobile app.
The All tab contains a handy dropdown with all your accounts (if you added more than one) and lets you switch between them very easily (as opposed to clicking Menu, etc).
A few of the stock apps that apparently never got linked to the Play Store before got identified and picked up this time, and updates to them were waiting for me when I fired the Store up. I've complained about this very bug in my last rant, and it looks like someone listened.

Any guess why? Can someone help me?
big thanks for you
This looks cool.
Will try it out.
thnx
Doesn't change anything for me, too.
Always installs in /data/apps and not /system/apps, does this make any difference? Moving it manually there does no difference.. :/

Does it work?
edit
i need sleep i guess cause what i posted wasnt for this version of play store lol
sorry about that
The main reason I started this thread is because I had trouble visiting Google Play without Android automatically opening the app.
To view your account details for Google Play you must click on the link below which will show you your account details, apps, music, books and movies in a list.

Irony, it still opens the play store's front page for me. It's simply set as default.
A good way to open Web pages to services that you permanently linked to an app tho, without clearing defaults, is to open them in a new tab

Anyway since the SDK is released for Chromecast, hasn't google missed a trick?
Is this a good idea
Why doesn't google make Chromecast app be with google drive? I could upload all my files, movies, torrrents, photos and would love to have them ALL in one place and be able to cast them?
I would really consider upgrading the storage and paying for more storage, they would be able to get more $£€¥... IMO
So do you think google should do google drive Chromecast, if no why not?
Same thing with that ^ but again would like to see DRopbox have the ablitlty to stream. Things from the cloud.
Pros of this - limited space on phone storage, so drive can be used No need to run a server 24/7. Save electricity costs Assuming its cheaper considering that ^ Can view word files, homework, PDF , on big screen
Post your views would you like to see this?"""""
I live that idea, could be very useful. Your views ? Should google do this

Avia can pull from Dropbox
AllCast can pull from both Dropbox and Google Drive
RealPlayer Cloud can pull from their cloud
If Google was going to do this, they would have already - because they didn't need to wait for the SDK release - they could make any Chromecast app they wanted to whenever they wanted to.
They could just do a straight dump/retrieve from Drive to Chromecast, but without a player app that can handle that file type, Chromecast will just get the file and not know what to do with it, just like having your browser download a file that your computer/phone doesn't have an app to open.
The trick is in the player app, and Google for the most part leaves it to the app developers to develop.
The business aspect is that if Google starts developing lots of apps for Chromecast, developers may shy away from Chromecast development in fear that Google will do what their (paid) app is doing for free.

Oh didn't know that. Yeah I get what you mean.
I'm guessing you must use avia, all cast or real player ,
Could I ask which one do you prefer the most ?
How much online storage in GB do real player offer?? Edit 2GB!!!!! Is that it????
Does it support the other 50gb cloud storage , mega???
Thanks
You can get an additional 3GB (I think) from Real by completing a few tasks (just like Dropbox).
But I don't put my media online, it's all local. Still working out how to handle it, to be honest.
There's definitely lots of room in the Chromecast space.
-= this post enhanced with bonus mobile typos =-
I don't use Google Drive, so this may be idiotic - but can you paste the url directly into LocalCast and go from there?

[NEW OFFICIAL METHOD TO GET LATEST]Amazon Instant Video & Store app working no APK's!
Hello everyone have you been trying to get Amazon Instant Video working on your device and the APK and Dolphin browser method have failed you? Well I spent about an hour figuring this out and man now this is legit and a way to get the latest updates on the Amazon Store app on tablet and the Amazon Instant video app working on any Android device flawlessly without errors.
Step One: First you can Google ; amazon app store download android, the first one on a Google search should be
Install Amazon Appstore - Amazon.com once you click it it will take you to a download page for the Amazon app store. Just make sure you have
unknown sources checked in security to install it.
Amazon App Store Link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/mas/get-appstore/android/ref=mas_rw_ldg
Step Two: Log in to the Amazon account you use preferably the one with Prime and Amazon Instant video(for those with multiple Amazon accounts, you can easily switch Amazon accounts in the App settings. )
Step Three: Once logged in search Amazon store app , then select and click get and then install the "Amazon" titled app not the Amazon for Tablets that wont activate Instant Video for some dumb reason. It must be the Amazon app store application officially.
Step Four: Go back or stay in the Amazon app store app and then search for Amazon Instant Video, tap to install it.
Step Five: First go to the Amazon store app (my preference/ recommendation) then it should say welcome your name and continue for the account you signed in with on the Amazon App Store application. If you click sign in as a different user it well on all of the Amazon applications. (In the settings of the Amazon App store you can switch accounts just scroll to the bottom of its menu.)
Step Six: Now do the same as step five for the Instant Video app! Just click continue or sign in as a different user (thus changing your log in on all three of these Amazon apps. Most likely all amazon apps.)
Step Seven: Finally a LEGIT FREAKING way to watch Amazon Instant Video on any device especially incompatible Android devices like my Samsung Galaxy Tab S and Samsung Galaxy Note 4.
Note: My Galaxy Note 4 came with the Amazon store app so you just needed to then download the Amazon app store app and then Instant video and BOOM!
If I solved your problem click that Thanks button!
This method should work on any Android device absolutely any Android device.
Sadly I think I am the first person to figure this out just on a side note, I was like hmm and thought that the Amazon app store app should have other amazon apps without device incompatibility issues because that's a stupid Play Store issue. Btw Amazon Instant video and media in full screen on the Tab S 10.5 are amazing in full screen!
My current signature is outdated:
Current devices:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (AT&T)
Tablet: Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (I found out how to get Android 5.0.2 working on the wi fi model with the Bliss stalk rom via Blisspop! some minor bugs like recent apps capacitative button doesnt work but in settings you can go to buttons and assign home button double tap to recents also pure aosp so no Samsung dual window etc. bloat free 100%, need to use the Philz touch recovey port doesnt work with TWRP need a clean rom install wipe.)Current rom is ThunderRom800 V3 with SkyHigh kernel 2.2.0 and philz recovery. I need dual window ..
Sorry for typos 12:01 AM and did this quick well clean up later.
I figured the same thing out during Xmas vacation.
I already had the Amazon appstore app (orange icon with word app) installed to get their free app of the day. The trickiest part was to realize I had to get the Amazon shopping app (the one with the shopping cart icon) but NOT the one for tablets. (They don't call it the shopping app, though, just Amazon.) This is the app that lets you log into your prime account. The instant video app is just there to play video. Without the shopping app, the instant video app just sends you to a web page with a bunch of apps and you get to figure out which one you actually need. It's so stupid that it must be deliberate. I think they want you to give up and buy a kindle fire instead.
Ironically, on iOS, you just get the Amazon instant video app and you're done. It's one app like everything else.
Note that you cannot get the Amazon appstore app from Google play store (understandably since Amazon is competing directly with the play store). You cannot get the Amazon shopping app for phones from the play store either, because Google so helpfully figures that since you have a tablet, it will direct you to the app for tablet instead.
Anyway, with that all done, does anyone else think the video quality is noticeably inferior to Netflix? I've seen nothing that looks wow on the OLED.

I know that about the iOS and Android instant video differences because I'm the only Android user in my entire family. But yea it is ridiculous that we need 2 - 3 apps just for instant video. But hey at least people that use instant video usually use the Amazon app already. Amazon just wants both apps to be installed on the users devices. While Google play has limitations on apps per device such as the app is incompatible with this device message meaning we then have to hope there is an apk that works with your device which is stupid but nothing can be done about it because Google app developers have to try to support so many devices and many different screen sizes. Sorry for the typos again sent from my tablet laying down just finished watching Dexter on Instant video on my 10.5 hd super amoled screen. At 3:05 Am.
fantastic works a treat - thanks
was really bugging me that I was paying a monthly sub for Instant Video and could only use it on the kids Ipads and not on my Tab S without installing a 3rd party app (ok this is still sort of 3rd party - but I trust amazon)
great

Glad I could help you both! If you know anyone else with this issue , link them here.
I used apk extractor to pull both apps from my phone and installed them on my Tab S 10.5. Worked like a charm.
Confirmed working on a rooted Tab S 10.5. No hacks, no problems.
* Install amazon appstore from amazon web site.
* Within amazon appstore, install "Amazon" app, not "Amazon for Tablets".
* Log in to new amazon app.
* App has instant video in it's menu, try to watch a video.
* App sends you right to the place to install the instant video app automatically.
* Now you can watch videos.
* Finally, you can uninstall the amazon appstore app if you want. It's no longer needed. You have to keep both "Amazon" and "Prime Instant Video".
FYI, Amazon app store has a free app every day. Most days it's pretty crappy but I've gotten some good stuff like Swype, wolfram, and monument valley. On holidays, they have a bunch of free stuff.
When I try and install the app, the INSTALL button is nonresponsive. CANCEL works though. I have UNKNOWN SOURCES checked.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Do you have any other amazon apps installed they could be interfering with the install or make sure you have unknown sources checked in security.

This didnt work for me with my ADT-1 and comcast. But I was able to use dolphin browser just fine.
I hate this crazy dichotomy of streaming devices. There is no true 10 ft/lean back/ whatever u wanna call it launcher that works with android. I gotta say, a fire TV, or even better a xbox 360 or ONE is basically the only way to get Amazon Instant, Netflix, Hulu, HBO GO, xfinity TVgo, etc with no modifications or tinkering.
Why does this have to be so friggin difficult?
I may as well just keep using my firetv stick and miracasting my nexus 7 2013 to it as needed to supplement. My adt-1 is fast, does a good job with everything. But theres no true easy way to get the Amazon Prime Instant with continuous play except for a firetv. Even the Roku 3 has a crappy launcher.
Hey,
i have the Nokia 8 with pure android and i got that feeling that there are some "secret" apps. For example in Spotify there is an option called equalizer. and when i do some cool changes there it does not only affect Spotify but all sounds. On my old phone with Lineage OS there was an stand alone equalizer app installed and when i open the Spotify equalizer option this app was opened. So i wonder if the stock android has an on board equalizer, too and how would i open it without Spotify?
Another "secret" app is the weather app from google. I have that google widget on the homescreen that tells me what date it is and if there is anything in my calendar for today (hopefully it will do that i added it today and there where no entry for today) And somewhen (don't know why) there was in addition weather information and when i clicked on it it opened a google weather app. But i cannot find that app from the app drawer.
Hopefully some of you can help me with those apps. I'm absolutely new to pure android. Before the android versions were always modified by HTC or Lineage,...
You can download shortcut for equalizer in Google Play store. I think the same with weather app
