  • The Play Store’s Collections feature is now widely available in the US.
  • This feature automatically groups installed apps by topic and then delivers personalized info about them via a widget.

Google revealed the Google Play Collections feature for the Play Store in July. This feature lets you group your installed apps by topic and receive information about them via a home screen widget.

We previously confirmed that this Google Play Collections widget had started rolling out in the US, and 9to5Google reports that it’s now widely available in the region. Google says the feature requires a phone running Android 12, and the outlet reported that they’re seeing it in version 42.5.15 of the Play Store.
