Google Play launches in the hunt for families – Les Echos



“Good for peace household,” it said on the site Apple as a introductory message to its “family share”. More than a single strategy, it is a trend increasingly used by technology companies. It is now the turn of Google Play to run in the family division.

Papa, mama, the eldest, the twins, and even Junior, the little dog … They can be up to six. Google officially announced the creation of a “Family Library” to “six members of the same family to share their purchases on Google Play.”

The first thing to know, is that it is a completely free service. Then, to use it, you have to go in his “account” to set up the family library. The director, who must be at least 18 years old and do not, of course, already be part of another family on Google Play, will have to register a credit card that will be the mode of payment for the group.

It is then that the administrator can add the members of his family. But there are, however, some conditions apply. To become a member of a family library, you must have a Google account, be at least 13 years, live in the same country as the administrator, and again not to already be part of “another family.”

The service is currently available in several countries, US to Australia, via Ireland, France and Brazil.

With certainly lag behind Apple, Google goes on the attack families. A strategy that the Mountain View company was more or less already in place with the inauguration in December 2015, Google Play Music allows users, subscribing to a subscription (14.99 euros per month), d listen to family streaming music, as Apple music, Spotify and Deezer.
