Terminator Genisys: Revolution is the first Android app you can pre-register for

To be first in line to download a new app, you need to be quick off the mark. You might hear about a game or app weeks ahead of launch, and it's all too easy to miss the launch date. You might be wondering why it has taken Google so long to do something about it.

For Android users this is now a thing of the past thanks to the introduction of pre-registration. The first title in Google Play to offer this is Terminator Genisys: Revolution. You can now register your interest in the game and you'll be notified when it is released and is ready for download.

The process is pretty simple, and it makes perfect sense for app and game developers as it provides a way to promote a product ahead of launch. There's no need to wait until launch day for supported apps to appear in Google Play as their entry can now be posted ahead of time. To make sure you don’t miss out, just hit the pre-register button and you'll be told:

You're about to pre-register for TERMINATOR GENISYS: REVOLUTION. Pre-registering means that you will recieve (sic) a notification on your device when the app is released. You can unregister by clicking the 'Unregister' button.

Terminator Genisys: Revolution may be the first app in Google Play that you can pre-order, but it certainly won’t be the last.
