Google lets you launch vibe-coded apps directly through the Play Store
The Verge AI · rss · 2026-10-14
Google announced a new US feature: apps vibe-coded in AI Studio no longer need to be sideloaded via a computer — they can now be launched directly through the Play Store. Google introduced vibe-coded personal Android apps in May, says these apps stay "secure, private, and separate from the public store catalog," supports publishing with a standard Google account, and will soon add selective sharing.
