by 5 comments

Google has updated its Play Services to version 4.1 bringing new features and improving on others. First off the update brings support for turn-based multiplayer – now developers can create games with turn-based gameplay and Google Play Services will distribute turns among players.

There’s also a preliminary Google Drive API, improved battery life with Google Location Reporting, Google+ sharing and Mobile Ad SDK improvements.

The API for Google Drive has its own developer preview. It features syncing of files across Android devices and on the Web and changes made in offline mode will be added upon a reconnect.

Google+ has received an update to its sharing experience with an improved auto-complete for Gmail, Google+ and device contacts.

You can get the app from the Google Play store or through your phone.
