Google Play Store is making the move to your Pixel 10 a bit less chaotic
- The Play Store Downloads list now separates restored apps into a “From previous device” section during the setup process.
- The change was spotted by a tipster while restoring apps on a Pixel 10 Pro XL.
- It’s a small tweak that could make the transfer to a new device marginally less overwhelming.
If you’ve just picked up a new Pixel 10 or any other Android phone, you’ll know the chaos of transferring everything from your old handset. Restoring dozens or hundreds of apps through the Play Store can mean they end up jumbled together with app updates, making it hard to see what’s what as you set up your new device. But it seems that might be getting easier.
As spotted by Artem Russakovskii on X, the Play Store’s Downloads list is now split into two sections: “From previous device” and “Updates.” He noticed the change while restoring nearly 400 apps on his new Pixel 10 Pro XL, but it appears to be a Play Store tweak rather than a Pixel-specific feature.
