Batch install support is probably the biggest change present in the new Google Play Store version. This will allow you to to select multiple apps by going to My Apps << All section and install them in one go. You will obviously have to individually accept app permissions but it still removes quite a bit of work. Next big change present in the updated Play Store client is the option “Always Ask password for purchases”, this is particularly important in the wake of a recent lawsuit, in which a mother sued Google when her kid made in-app purchases worth $65 in one game. This setting will help in avoiding any such incidents in future or at-least make Google immune to future lawsuits with similar in-app purchase accidents.
