Introduction

If you’ve owned multiple Android devices, you’ve probably downloaded a lot of apps from the Google Play store — over time deleting the apps you no longer felt like you needed. However, if you’re having a change of heart but can’t remember the specific name of an app you deleted to reinstall it, Google makes it possible to see all of the Android apps you’ve ever installed through the Google Play store, and gives you the option to reinstall them if you want to. Examples of all instructions in the steps can be seen in both the YouTube video above and the image collection located beneath the steps.
