I have a Galaxy Tab A 10.
I have never had a problem with it.
I don’t play games on it. I only use it to answer emails, work on my web site, and check Facebook.
I have only installed a few apps on it but they are just basic productivity apps.
Just recently my Google Play store has disappeared off from the Tab.
I don’t know why. I just uninstalled an app one day and went to reinstall it and notice that the Play Store was gone.
I went into my settings and verified that the play store was no longer on the Tab.

I tried logging into the Play Store on my PC’s browser and went to install and app.
I picked the app I wanted to install.
I picked my Tab SM-T580 from my devices drop down menu and clicked on install.
It gave me the message “will be installed on your device soon”.
I waited for a long time but it never got sent to my device.
I tried doing the same thing again and this time when I clicked on install I got a blank popup that only said “OK”.

I tried doing the same think with the browser on my Tab and I get the same results.

Has anyone else had this issue or know how I can resolve this and get the Play Store back on my Tab?
