It has always been a negative point for users of tablets of Android, compared to those of iOS, the relative lack of optimized apps for this type of device, as they did not tire in Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), to point out during the presentation of your iPad mini y iPad 4. However, Google has made a lot of effort to increase the offer in this area and, now also, to make it easier for users to locate them, has published in Google Play a revamped and much broader list of recommended apps for tablets.
What stands out most of this new selection of applications optimized for tablets of Google, without a doubt, is the extension of the list, which now contains about 130 options. It is quite striking, however, that the vast majority of recommended applications are games. It is a reality that playing is one of the favorite activities of tablet users, as several studies have already shown, and, of course, there are a huge number of titles, especially those with better graphics, that are more enjoyed on the web. larger screen on a tablet than on a smartphone.
It is surprising, however, that the selection does not also include more productivity applications, for example, since the possibilities offered by tablets to work are infinitely greater than those of smartphones, and the same happens with other types of tasks. Despite this, as we say, the work-oriented recommendations by Google they are rather rare.
As always in these types of lists, Google also mixes a good number of greatest hits (such as Real Racing 3, Angry Birds o Temple Run) with other much more unknown titles, so that the combination is quite varied in this regard. We also have a lot to choose from even if we are not willing to get paid applications, since the vast majority of recommendations are from Free. If you want to check the complete list yourselves, here you have it.
