While you are doing a search in the Android Play Store, add the minus symbol at the end of your search term followed by the words which you do not want. For example, if a user is searching for Angry Birds, there are a lot of other themes and ringtones that come after or before the actual app you are looking for. In this case, you could use the tip.
For example, type this in the search box : ” Angry Birds -Ringtone -Theme -Wallpapers ”
This will make the search much more effective as the results will not show anything from the wallpapers, ringtones and the themes category shortlisting what you probably just want. This method will save a lot of time while searching for not-so-popular apps on the Play Store.
Tip 2 : Use the Web version of the Play Store
Using the Play Store on the Web needs a internet enabled computer which can run the browser and it might not be of much convenience, indeed. However, it also turns out to be one of the best and easiest ways of finding the app you want. Especially, if you’re looking for multiple apps in one category or just setting up your new Android phone, it would be of really good use.
When you are signed in on your Android device and the Play Store over the web, the apps start getting downloaded and installing automatically on your Android phone, at any location it may be wirelessly provided it’s connected to the internet. It’s a very useful feature and helps as one does not have to go through the menus in the small screen and choose apps one by one.
Also, there are multiple search options on the Google Play store on the Web like Sorting by Relevance, filtering by paid/free etc.
You may use these tips to make your app search on the Android Play Store much more efficient and easier, by helping you save time and also giving results more accurately as you want.
