"While we're in that area of the Play Store on Android, make yourself a mental note: Right in that same section lurks an incredibly useful way to find a full list of every app you've ever installed that isn't already present on your current device. It's a fantastic way to rediscover something you'd installed before - whether weeks ago or even years in the past - and get it back on your current device without any brain-exhausting excavation."
"So here's the trick: On that same "Manage apps & device" screen we were just starin' at, in that very same "Manage" tab, tap the box toward the top that says "This device." And just like that, you'll find a tucked-away option to shift your view and focus on apps from your past that aren't currently present - either broadly or based on which specific other devices of yours they are installed on."
"From there, you can tap any app in the list to open its info screen and then install it - or you can take a cue from our previous tip and check the box alongside all the apps you want to bring back. If you take that route, just look for the downward-facing arrow icon at the top of the screen once you've made your selections to install everything you picked in one fell swoop."
The Play Store includes a hidden list showing every app ever installed with the account that isn't currently on the device. Open Manage apps & device, go to Manage, tap the "This device" box, and switch the view to show apps from past devices or specific other devices. Tap any app to open its app page and reinstall individually, or check multiple boxes and use the downward-facing arrow to install selected apps in bulk. The Play Store web settings also list all devices tied to the account. Use that settings page to declutter by selecting and removing old or unused devices.
