VK will launch the Russian analogue of Google Play before the end of May

The head of the Ministry of Digital Development Maksut Shadayev said that the beta version of the Russian app store will be launched before the end of May. TASS writes about this.

For the first time it became known that the main development is carried out by VK. Previously, Sberbank and Yandex were also considered among the possible executors.

There are no details yet regarding the filling of the store or even its name. But it will definitely not be VK Play, since such a platform already exists.

In March, it was reported that a domestic application store for Android called NashStore would soon be released. Its release is also scheduled for May. Another Russian store, RuMarket, has already launched. True, there are still very few applications in it.
