It would seem pretty logical to any platform developer that you would want to separate apps and games to make it easier for the user to find the ones they need. It would also be easier for developers to have their apps or games out there if the two are clearly differentiated from each other. But apparently, it took the Google Play Store developers a long time to do this, for one reason or another and now users are seeing that the top charts now have separate listings for the apps and the games.
Some have said that when they go to their Google Play Store, you you will now see a heading for the Top Free Apps and the Top Free Games and the two are separate. The screenshot uploaded on reddit however don’t show a Top Paid Apps and Top Paid Game section, but we’re assuming there will be ones also. What we won’t see now are the Top New Free and Top New Paid charts, which were sources of confusion for some users who were just looking for apps or games, and not both.
We don’t know why Google only “thought” of this now actually as it should make it easier for apps to be discovered and for users to find apps or games that they’re looking for. Over on the other side of the fence, Apple’s App Store also has a mixed top paid or top free store, but you can filter the results by category.
Some users (this one included) still hasn’t seen the changes in their Google Play Store so it may still be in gradual roll out mode. Or Google may just be testing out something since there is no official announcement yet to this change in the charts.
