Google to soon start "Play Pass" service: Here's what it means

Google has started working on an app subscription service for their Google Play Store. The service is currently being referred to as Google Play Pass. With the Google Play Pass, the users can enjoy paid apps and games for a monthly fee. The feature has been spotted on in a Google Play Store APK teardown and here's what it means.

Though Google has not given any confirmations, the upcoming Play Pass service will ask users to pay a monthly fee which can vary on the basis of the plan they select. This monthly fee will then allow the users to use some of the paid applications and games available on the Google Play Store.

The feature was first spotted by XDA Developers back in June this year during an APK teardown of the Google Play Store. The developer of MightyQuinnApps, Kieron Quinn suggested that the feature could be subscription based. During the further digging, decompilation of the Play Store APK showed something called the "Play Pass" which could potentially be the subscription-based service.

It is also worth mentioning that Google did as users that how well does "Pass" describe a subscription service that offers hundreds of dollars worth of paid apps and games for a monthly fee. The company brought this query to some users on Google Opinion Rewards.

As Google has not yet confirmed anything, we highly recommend taking this news as a pinch of salt. The Play Pass feature is currently being talked about due to the speculations made from the teardown of the APK.
