Google on Tuesday released its expected design update to the Play store, and also included support for applications that work with Google Glass. July 16, 2013 6:02 AM PDT Google Play (Credit: Screenshot by Don Reisinger/CNET) Google Glass, the search giant's significant step into wearable tech, has found a home for applications. The search company on Tuesday launched the expected redesign of its online Google Play marketplace. Early this morning, an Android user, Nicolas Gramlich, posted a screenshot to his Google+ page showing one of the titles available in the marketplace including support for Google Glass. That screenshot came just a few hours after Android and Me posted a screenshot showing Google Glass included as a supported device for Google Play applications. Upon choosing Google Glass in the dropdown, however, users find that it cannot be chosen because they "have not opened the Google Play Store app recently on this device." Until that functionality is included, Android users can browse the search company's newly redesigned Play marketplace. Google announced that it was going to offer up a new Play marketplace design at its I/O Conference earlier this year. The company's new design includes a tile-based approach to sifting through programs, and allows users to see categories, charts listing the top applications, and new releases. (Via The Verge)
