The search engine giant - Google is setting up milestones by steadily integrating everything within its social network - Google PLUS. The latest addition is the integration of Android apps. The best thing is that now the users can share the links to Android apps with their various circles and within that circle get an option to install the app directly from the stream itself.
Well, in order to use this feature, you need to just paste the URL of the particular app as your status and Bingo! The work is done. Google+ will embed an install / buy button by itself. Once the app is visible in your status, you may replace the link with your status message.
When your friend in the circle, clicks on the install button, he/ she will be redirected to the Google Play for that app. Its as easy as ABC. From here, they can choose the appropriate Android device on which they want to install the particular app. Once picked, the app will be pushed to the particular device.
On the contrary, it's a great way to try out the apps that your friends have recommended, without having to leave the Google Plus Page. For sometime at least, be prepared to be bombarded with app recommendations on your Google Plus profile. To my surprise, when I opened my Google Plus page today, it was poured with lot of app recos from my various group circles. It is really a great way to discover new and useful apps, through your circles.
Google mobile developers can also take advantage of this feature. They can share the links of android apps developed by them. This will also increase their apps popularity as more and more people in circles can share the link with their friends. So, it's really helpful for developers.
