Google pare a fi ajuns, in sfarsit, la concluzia ca in magazinul sau de aplicatii si-au facut loc prea multe pachete dubioase, inutile, slabe din punct de vedere calitativ si, nu in ultimul rand, periculoase. Asa ca Google s-a pus pe eliminat aplicatii din Google Play. Pana acum, peste 60.000 de aplicatii au fost sterse din magazin.
Curatenia Google a fost facuta in cursul unei singure luni, respectiv februarie, si reprezinta cea mai de extinsa actiune de acest gen intreprinsa de companie pentru a elimina din pachetele amintite.
Totusi, cei de la Google au avut si alt motiv de a face curatenie pe langa “grija” fata de utilizatorii de aplicatii Android. In curand, compania va lansa un facelift pentru magazinul sau de aplicatii care va ajunge astfel la versiunea 4.0.
De mentionat este faptul ca nu toate aplicatiile au fost sterse de Google, in spatele multor astfel de actiuni aflandu-se chiar dezvoltatorii software-urilor respective (pachete pe care le vom revedea probabil cu o alta “fata” in viitoarea versiune a Google Play).
Oricum, cele 60.000 de pachete sterse nu reprezinta o problema prea mare pentru Google. Magazinul Android are, potrivit datelor publicate chiar de companie la sfarsitul anului trecut, in jur de 700.000 de aplicatii, iar numarul lor creste in permanenta.
Iata cum suna anuntul lor:
Spam and Placement in the Store
Developers are important partners in maintaining a great user experience on Google Play.
Do not post repetitive content.
Product descriptions should not be misleading or loaded with keywords in an attempt to manipulate ranking or relevancy in the Store’s search results.
Developers also should not attempt to change the placement of any Product in the Store by rating an application multiple times, or by offering incentives to users to rate an application with higher or lower ratings.
Apps that are created by an automated tool or wizard service must not be submitted to Google Play by the operator of that service on behalf of other persons.
Do not post an app where the primary functionality is to: Drive affiliate traffic to a website or provide a webview of a website not owned or administered by you (unless you have permission from the website owner/administrator to do so)
Do not send SMS, email, or other messages on behalf of the user without providing the user with the ability to confirm content and intended recipient.
