One of the Play Store’s handiest tricks is letting you install apps on your other devices from your main phone. As long as your devices are signed into the same Google account, you can pick where you want an app to go all without touching the device itself. It’s super convenient to set everything up from one screen. So it only seems natural that you should be able to clean up apps the same way: ditching them from any device, right from your phone.

Right now, though, remotely deleting an app is kind of a chore. You have to dive into the “Manage apps & devices” menu, pick a specific device from a list just to see what’s on it, choose the app or apps you want uninstalled, and then finally tap the little trash icon. It’s functional, but it feels like you’re navigating a back hallway instead of using a front door.

It looks like Google is finally smoothing out the hassle. A new report from Android Authority says the tech giant is testing a much simpler fix: a new “Uninstall” button that lives right on individual app listings in the Play Store. The proof is tucked into the latest Play Store code (v47.7.19-31 for the curious), which hints at a cleaner way to remove apps from your other devices.

One tap to tidy all your devices

The team at Android Authority got it working, and tapping the button lets you remotely wipe an app from your Android phone, tablet, or TV without jumping through all the old menus.

For now, this new Uninstall button is still not live. But here’s something not everyone realizes: all Play Store installs (and uninstalls) actually run on Android’s push notification system. When you hit “install,” you’re not actually downloading anything directly. You’re just sending a little nudge to Google’s servers. That nudge gets delivered like any other notification. Even if the device is off or asleep, it’ll catch the update next time it connects and handle the install or removal on its own.

So remote uninstalls aren’t really new. They’ve always been possible in the background. This update just finally gives us a button instead of making us dig through menus.
