Google Play Store Plans Low-Quality App Warnings

Google is introducing a new feature in the Play Store designed to help users avoid low-quality apps. Users will see warning messages on app pages indicating if an app is frequently uninstalled, has limited user data, or has few active users compared to others. This update, discovered in the Play Store version 43.7.19-31, aims to improve user experience by providing insights that may prevent downloading sub-par applications. While the warnings won't stop users from downloading these apps, they offer additional information to make informed choices, especially beneficial for those with limited data or slow internet connections. The move is part of a broader effort by Google to enhance security and quality within the Play Store, particularly as concerns grow over the proliferation of potentially harmful apps, including free VPNs. Overall, these changes could benefit both users and genuine app developers seeking to improve their offerings.
