JAKARTA - Google is launching a new editorial content on the Google Play store, known as The Play Report, in the form of short videos similar to Shorts.

"Play Store displays editorial content such as Our Monthly Picks, New on Play and Teacher approved programs to help you find and download it. Currently, we are expanding the content to videos, by starting an original series called The Play Report," wrote John Mentgen, Global Director of Merchandising and Editorial, Google Play in Google blog.

Mentgen mengatakan bahwa Play Report ini akan menyoroti aplikasi dan gim terbaru dan terbesar di Google Play, untuk memberikan Anda rekomendasi tentang mana yang harus diunduh.

The goal is to improve recommendation-based content that is already available on the platform.

Each episode of the Play Report will be filled with expert voices, from creators to Googlers, covering trending content and hidden gems.

But unfortunately, the Play Report is still in the testing phase, and will only be available to several Play stores in the United States (US).

"This trial will be available to certain Play users in the US at the top of the Play Store home page," added the Minister of Agriculture.

Google also added, if you are not included as a tester of this new feature, you can watch The Play Report on YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram.

Although the initial video announcement is the only one currently available, Google has confirmed that a new episode will be released in the coming weeks.
