Slow Google Play Store Downloading

[deke40]

Have been having troubles with slow downloads from Google Play Store. Tried all the cache and data clearing
from Play Store and Play Service. Uninstalled updates to GPS and that didn't help. During that process it
updated from 8.7.10 to 8.8.12. Hoping that had done something to help but still woefully slow.

This is evidently a big problem and has been for sometime. Don't know if this inherent to a certain system or phone or what but would appreciate any help.

I am using an S5(yes I know it is old but in perfect condition) with version 6.0.1.

This worked instantly for me....thank you as it was driving me nuts!

I agree that it's safer to install apps 1 by 1, but if it was not slowed down all apps could be downloaded very quickly, which never happens...

Google is not slowing anything down. My apps download the same as they have in the past except for early Android versions that would download or update multiple apps at the same time.
