Google recently began experimenting with streaming apps on Android. And if all goes well, downloading apps to your phone could become the last option for you.
Right now, the feature just works inside of the Google Search app on Android, that place where Google Now lives. Google offers a situation like this: Maybe you're searching for a hotel, and the information you want would be easiest to get by using the HotelsTonight app instead of a janky mobile website. Don't have the HotelsTonight app? Don't want to go and download it? Me neither. So Google's app streaming can save you the trouble by spinning up the app in the cloud and then streaming it down to you.
Considering the fact that you are streaming it certainly requires a good network connection to prevent lagging and bad utility rate. Google has therefore limited this feature for now to connections on Wi-Fi only. Imagine the possibility of streaming a game that would have occupied so much space on your mobile-like Injustice or Grand theft auto or even the famous FIFA that are about 1.5GB in size. Streaming of apps also comes in handy.
The feature is still in the introductory stages and is available on Google Search app now, with just a small group of partners. Maybe this could be the future of apps usage. Great?
