Google Play Store's web version tipped to get a redesign

Google might be finally ready to revamp its Play Store on the web to look more like the mobile app. The redesign removes the large sidebar and cards and replaces them with four-button navigation and cleaner-looking listings with auto-playing trailers for games. You can filter apps by device type. And if you want to access your library or redeem a gift card, those are accessible through the account switcher you typically see on Google web apps.

Now, we just have to wait if Google will roll this out to more users. It's been spotted in the Korean and Taiwanese Play Stores.

The feature allows you to set up a "tip jar" on your profile where followers and fans can send money to you directly.
