Until now, the phone payment application for Android users was called Google Pay. A few weeks ago, during the Google I/O conference, it turned out that a company from California was planning to improve this application. The announced changes finally reach users and relate to many aspects of the application's operation.
From now on, the new application will be called Google Wallet. Google Pay will still remain with Android users, but from now on it will only be part of the new portfolio, and the Pay service will directly mean the possibility of making payments by phone. Google Wallet, on the other hand, will provide the user with many more options that will not be limited only to payments. Android users will be able to add, for example, digital ID cards, hotel room keys or an electronic copy of a driving license to the Wallet application. For now, Google has announced that the update of the Pay application to the new variant called Wallet will reach users from 39 countries.
