Google announced the terms of a $700 million settlement that alleged it overcharged customers due to Play Store policies.
As part of the deal, third-party payments will be allowed for in-app purchases. Previously, these were part of a limited pilot program. (USA users only)
Google will also make sideloading easier and change the wording used to warn users about potential risks.
