A Developer from named luca020400 noticed that Google is focusing on the Android ART or Android Run-time, that means the ART is Google’s mainline project at present. In short, you can apply android updates right from the Google Play store. Traditionally Android updates are processed through the android updater, that’s found in android settings, something like the picture below.

Android updates are important to many users, but now you don’t have to wait for weeks or months for android updates. According to XDA, If Google makes ART behave the same way on all Android devices, then it can be more consistent with app updates. But, it also has some problems of its own, such as it can force device makers to compromise with some of the customization they’re used to.

This could make it more easier to deliver OS updates, right from the Android Play Store. This would result in a more consistent behavior across smartphones. The feature will change a lot of things in smartphones, resulting in a more stable system, with regular updates, more compatible apps & less system slowdown as it will be easier to provide android updates, especially updates regarding bug-fixes and performance.
