Galaxy Apps vs Play Store Apps

DinasBhai — Tue, 01 Oct 2019 17:58:10 GMT

I was wondering if certain apps through the Galaxy App store are better optimized for my Galazy S8+. While not all commonly used apps seem to be available, I have noticed apps like Twitter and Booking on both platforms. So, in example, would there be any reason to uninstall Twitter or Booking from the Play Store and reinstall the Galaxy Apps' alternative or is that just a waste of time? I've never really explored the Galaxy app store before.

@DinasBhai: I suppose the benefit of the Galaxy Store is knowing that anything you download from there is compatible with Galaxy devices, as opposed to Google Play where its intended for a wider Android audience, so there's potential for performance issues. I'd recommend sticking to the Galaxy Store for all your Samsung app needs, and using Google Play for third party apps. Enjoy.
