You know how almost every app or software store lets you buy apps and gift them to someone else? Well, you better put your dreams of ever doing that on Android to rest. Or burying them under 10 feet of disappointment. Someone at Google recently took a look at the Issue Tracker, saw the issue labeled “Implement Gifts within Android Market,” which has been added back in 2010 when the Play Store was still the Android Market and which has gathered over 1100 stars and hundreds of comments from users requesting app gifting, and decided to be the bearer of bad news because you know what, this is “infeasible” and Google “won’t fix” it.
[Update: False alert] Google says gifting in the Play Store is “Infeasible,” marks it as “Won’t Fix” in the Issue Tracker was written by the awesome team at Android Police.
