Help Is this Google Play Store safe to install?

KBU2 · Mar 17, 2019

Okay I've noticed there's a new version of Google Play Store available that's 14.0.33-all[0] [PR] 238546948 and I need to know is it safe to install because I didn't see it in Google Play store for an update. I'm currently running version 13.9 .17-all[0] [PR] 236777123. :thinking:

13.9.17 is the current release in the play store. Where are you seeing 14?

Maybe it's because the newer version isn't compatible with your device and its current Android version.

Playstore knows when to stop updating apps on incompatible devices.

Well I took a chance and installed it and it seems to be working pretty good, there is no complication in the Play store when updating my other apps. My Android OS is 8.1.0

Then I'd have to agree with @lvt , it's probably for Pie and not compatible with older versions of Android. Or, it could be a regional roll-out by Google and just hasn't reached you yet? Why the rush?

Well I read the virant it's 4.0+ Target 8.1.0 so I thought it was a good idea because the targeted virant is my OS

You're not trying to do some DIY hack or mod of the Google Play app are you? Which you might need to do if you got a China variant phone or tablet.
