Google is reviving useful features in google Play. Now you can go to the Google Play Store on your Chromebook or Android phone and remove the application remotely. If you suddenly hear about an app that is stealing user data and you can't get the device on which the app is installed, you can use this back feature to remove it. 

This feature has been missing from Google Play for about 10 years, so it's nice to see it making a winning return. Remote app deletion was first discovered by Android permissions and it seems to work just as smoothly as when the feature was removed a decade ago. 

If your phone or Chromebook has it enabled (you may not have it yet because it's rolling out gradually), here's another, however, as of this writing, this feature does not work in the web version of the Google Play Store.This could be a security restriction implemented by Google to give you more control over who can remove an app from your device.

Again, this feature is gradually deployed, so it may not yet appear on your device. Otherwise, you will have to wait for them to arrive, because there is no way to hurry. In any case, it is useful to know that this feature will come up if it is something you think you will use. Whenever a new (or returning feature) moves to Android, that's a good thing.
