Celebrating Google Play’s First Birthday!

Wednesday, March 6, 2013

One year ago today we launched Google Play where you can find and enjoy your favourite movies, books and apps on your Android phone and tablet, or on the web.
No birthday is complete without presents, we’re celebrating with a bunch of special offers for Canadians across the store on TV shows, movies and books. We’re even offering a collection of games with some fun birthday surprises created by developers.
It’s been a busy year, but we’re just getting started. We look forward to many more years of bringing you the best in entertainment.
