Google Wallet on Android now juggles all your internet accounts

Google Wallet for Android

As good as Google Wallet might be for payments, you’ve so far been locked into one Google account; that’s not so hot if family member need to borrow your phone to send some cash. That won’t be an issue after today, since Google has updated Wallet’s Android app with a tweaked interface that lets you use multiple Google accounts. You’ll also get shipment updates for orders from distant retailers.
There’s also an under-the-hood upgrade that should affect other apps you use. A Google Play Services refresh makes it easier for developers to put Google Wallet Instant Buy buttons in their titles; when they do, it’ll be trivial to buy something on a whim. That’s not great news if you’re an impulsive shopper, but we suspect that those with a good handle on their finances will be happy with the improvements.
