Sometimes new features go live before they are intended to which is exactly what happened to the Play Store earlier today. Astute Android users would have noticed today that a mysterious Play Daily button on the Play Store appeared out of the blue and didn’t appear to go anywhere – click on it only seemed to result in a server error. Also curious is that a “Dogfood Apps” button appeared in the Apps section of the Play Store, which predictably led to a number of Google apps that are already available to the public – no, not Google’s internal special version of apps.

While we’re not sure what purpose these new buttons would serve, it appears that it has all been an accident on Google’s side, with Googler Kirill Grouchnikov confirming that it was accidentally put into the production build:

We’d expect the buttons to disappear soon, if they haven’t already, but it’s almost nice to know that even Google can be human sometimes. What do you think about the Play Daily button on the Play Store? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
