This move comes as part of Meta&#8217;s ongoing efforts to streamline its app development process and provide a more cohesive experience for developers.<\/p>\n<p>App Lab is a platform that allows developers to distribute their apps outside of the traditional app stores, such as the Google Play Store. This gives developers more flexibility and control over how their apps are distributed and allows them to reach a wider audience. On the other hand, the Horizon Store is a virtual reality app store that is part of Meta&#8217;s Horizon platform.<\/p>\n<p>By merging these two platforms, Meta aims to create a more unified experience for developers who are creating apps for both traditional mobile devices and virtual reality platforms. This will make it easier for developers to manage their apps and reach a larger audience across different platforms.<\/p>\n<p>One of the key benefits of this merger is that it will allow developers to leverage the strengths of both platforms. For example, developers will be able to use the distribution capabilities of App Lab to reach a wider audience, while also taking advantage of the immersive experiences offered by the Horizon Store for virtual reality apps.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, by merging these platforms, Meta will be able to provide developers with more tools and resources to help them create high-quality apps. This includes access to analytics and insights that can help developers better understand their audience and optimize their apps for success.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Meta&#8217;s plan to merge App Lab and the Horizon Store is a positive development for Android app developers. By creating a more cohesive experience across different platforms, developers will have more opportunities to reach a wider audience and create innovative apps that take advantage of the latest technologies. This move demonstrates Meta&#8217;s commitment to supporting developers and fostering a thriving app ecosystem.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"plato-post-bottom-links\">\n<li class=\"plato-post-bottom-link-article-source\"><span>Source Link:<\/span> <a rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/zephyrnet.com\/meta-plans-to-blur-barriers-between-app-lab-and-horizon-store-court-android-app-developers\/\">https:\/\/zephyrnet.com\/meta-plans-to-blur-barriers-between-app-lab-and-horizon-store-court-android-app-developers\/<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meta, the parent company of Facebook, recently announced its plan to merge App Lab and the Horizon Store in an effort to benefit Android app developers.
