An update to Google Play Store is now rolling out with build version 3.10.9. Not much changes have been made except for a new screen that suggests apps after you install an app and ability to delete items added in wishlist.
Also, while installing the app we did notice some new location based permissions the app was asking request for:
Approximate location (network-based)
Precise location (GPS and network-based)
It could be possible that more changes have been made with this new Play Store APK and we haven’t found them yet, so do let us know if you find anything new other than the ones mentioned here.
