Alphabet's Google asked a U.S. appeals court on Wednesday to throw out a jury verdict and a judge's order forcing it to revamp its app store Play.

Google’s mission to make Android more like iPhone continues, at least when it comes to security and privacy, narrowing the gap. Android 15 moves the bar significantly, with a raft of updates including AI-based live detection of malicious apps and even cellular network defense. But there are also huge changes coming to Play Store.

If you have an Android phone, you might soon have some protection from useless apps. Google is reportedly working on a feature that will add a warning to the Play Store page of any app the company thinks isn't very good.

The Google Play Store could soon let you identify if an app is of low quality using three types of precautionary messages on the app's page.

Alphabet's Google has urged a U.S. appeals court to overturn a judge's order mandating changes to its Play Store, stemming from Epic Games' claims of monopoly practices. Google argues that the trial's decision was biased and could negatively impact both developers and consumers.

Alphabet Inc.’s Google is asking a federal appeals court to throw out a ruling in an antitrust case brought by Fortnite-maker Epic Games that would force the search giant to overhaul its Play mobile app store.

Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) is appealing its loss in the Epic Games antitrust trial, asking a U.S. appeals court to throw out a jury verdict that ended up directing heavy changes to Google's Play Store app market.

The judge ruled last year the Google Play app store was required to make changes to its payment system after forcing app developers to explicitly use its proprietary system.

Google, in its detailed argument to the San Francisco-based 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals, said the trial judge made legal errors that unfairly benefited Epic Games.
