Get ready to finally be able to access third-party Android app stores in the Google Play Store next week. That is, if Google heeds the orders handed down by U.S. District Judge James Donato yesterday.

Donato had strong words for Google in a San Francisco courtroom. The long-running case of Epic Games v. Google was decided in favor of Epic, and back in March the two parties agreed on redesigned app store practices. But those practices have not been put in place to the satisfaction of Epic or Donato.

Google’s turn to sit through a demo

To make its case that Google is not complying, Epic conducted a live demo in the courtroom of searching for app stores in the Google Play Store, The Verge reported.

Epic’s lawyer Yonatan Even demonstrated searching for "store for apps," which resulted in apps for physical stores.

A search for Aptoide, the first competing app store to get into the Google Play Store, did not result in an easy install, but rather a banner to click through to get to a dedicated third-party app store page.

And finally. Even showed that when a user does find an app store that they are looking for, they are confronted first with a View button that then leads to an Install button.

Judge orders fixes by next week

Donato instructed Google to take corrective measures across the board. For search phrases, he said, "I want every possible variation that’s even only 70 percent properly phrased."

And in words that are music to the ears of anyone who has searched a streaming site for a movie or show only to be met with a list of similar suggestions but not what they were looking for, he said, "Take off the ‘are you looking for’ screen, there’s no purpose for that. There’s a friction there that has no purpose whatsoever."

Donato gave Google a deadline. "Have it done by a week from today," said. "If there’s some problem with that, let me know."

Google’s counsel agreed to the changes, which means that they should show up in the Google Play Store by Aug. 20.
