Google launches Android Pay on Google Play Store

Google is beginning to roll out the Android Pay app on the Google Play Store. The Mountain View Company announced Android Pay earlier this year at Google I/O along with Android M, the successor of Android Lollipop. Android Pay is a new NFC-based payment service for Android phones and is an effective successor to Google Wallet, although Google Wallet still remains as a service for sending P2P payments. The roll out of the new app actually began last week as an update for Google Wallet users, however, from now onwards the app will be available to all users for direct download. The smartphones must be running Android 4.4 Kitkat or above and equipped with NFC hardware in order to use the app. Presently, the service will only be available in the US and will support a variety of credit and debit cards from various US banks and credit unions.

How to Cancel Downloads in Google Chrome for Android

Google Chrome is one of the most popular web browser on Android and Desktop alike. It packs a host of powerful features combined with superior speed that makes it lovable to Android users. But unlike other mobile web browsers, Google Chrome doesn't provide an option to cancel downloads. The downloads in Chrome are directly controlled by the built-in Download Manager within the Android operating system. So, the way around to stop a download in Chrome for Android is to go to Settings and open Apps. Now go to the tab which says All. Scroll down to find Download Manager and tap on it. Touch on Force Stop. The download icon will vanish from the notification bar. Tapping on Clear Data will ensure that the problem doesn't come back again. Was this information helpful?
