For ages now, we've been waiting on Xbox to add a version of the Xbox / Microsoft Store to the Android and iOS apps, as until now it's been impossible to actually buy anything on there - you've only been able to remote install games.
However, the Xbox Store has officially begin rolling out on the Xbox mobile beta app as of today, and it seems to be pretty much the same thing we get on console, containing the same kinds of categories and sorting features.
I've been playing around with it this morning, and you can see some images below. Note that it's not just paid games that appear in the store, but also free-to-play titles and demos - another very useful feature for when you're away from home and want to "redeem" those games and start the download process.

If you're interested in trying this for yourself, you can download the Xbox Beta app on the Google Play Store (I haven't tried it on iOS yet, but believe it's working on there too), and if you're in an applicable region, it should show up.
Alternatively, you can just wait until this feature rolls out to the main Xbox mobile app in the near future, presumably in the coming days/weeks. It won't be long until we're finally all able to buy games on the Xbox mobile app!
