TL;DR
- Android 16 introduces “seamless app updates” to make installing app updates faster and less disruptive.
- This feature significantly reduces the time an app is frozen during an update, cutting it from seconds to milliseconds.
- The improvement is achieved by running optimization scripts earlier in the installation process, reducing app downtime.



Downloading software isn’t the same thing as installing it.
I know, what’s your point?
The app has to be installed after downloading…
Yes, I know but why are you telling me that?
???
Because you said this:
That “10 seconds while nothing happens” is the app being installed. That’s it.
I understand now that you may have just been expressing frustration, but text doesn’t convey sarcasm or hyperbole the same way as actual speech. I would suggest amending your comment to reflect the use of hyperbole. Don’t be an idiot by pretending other people are dumb for misinterpreting.
