I saw that your app was removed from Google Play. What is the reason? short answer - google's humans right violation, fuck google! #5
Comments
Reason is new google play policy about revealing personal address to the whole internet, it's human's right violation, i've removed all my apps from play market |
Is it because Google Play Developer has reached the deadline for verifying personal information? |
no, i removed apps by my own hands, my developer account status is good and verified, after verification i'd saw that my personal address available to whole internet and it is according google rules..., after that i removed all apps, this is riot against stupid rules, i want work with google anymore |
Also, for all who want to implement app in such category, like video downloader, for play market. There is huge amount of bots, that installing and removing app every day, trying crush app's indexing on early stages, for protect from such things you should have core auditory before launch, this crucial thing for success in my opinion |
I am in the process of developing an application that utilizes the YouTube-DL tool. However, the app includes a strict check to ensure it does not allow the downloading of videos from YouTube or violate any of their terms of service. Before proceeding with submission to the Play Store, I would like to clarify if the use of YouTube-DL in this capacity could potentially pose any risks to my developer account, even though the app will not permit the downloading of YouTube content. Could you please provide guidance on whether this approach complies with Google Play Store policies, and if there are any potential risks to my Google Play Console account? Thank you for your assistance. |
Can you provide me your email or any Contact details so that we can have a meeting regarding to this issue. |
@ali-shakeel880 When my app was on market i had code like |
if you mean using library youtube-DL especially is allowed in "terms and conditions", for example youtube not allowed, potentially many others could not allowed, but no checks for this. Any others services constantly improving their systems and you must always do upgrades, for example right now not working anime services from screenshots, and i too busy, to investigate what they did, and calm, because app not on market. As resume i think this apps category is grey zone and now best idea for making money on market, this my opinion P.S. cool, python 3.9 and above issue |
Thank you for your assistance. I am currently implementing to display a dialog when the link is from YouTube, indicating that downloading videos from YouTube is not permitted. Can you provide me any other suggestion? |
Thank you for sharing your insights! I completely understand the challenges you’ve mentioned regarding the use of libraries like youtube-dl and the constant need for updates in response to service changes. It’s true that navigating the grey areas of app development can be tricky, but it also presents unique opportunities for innovation. I believe that with careful consideration and proactive management, we can create a compelling app that resonates with users and stands out in the market. But many apps are using this library i think and have 100 million plus downloads they are using it in web view and user do not need to login their accounts for video downloading like (instagram ,facebook ) accounts .My main focus is on that the user do not have to login their accounts to download a video they instead just paste the link and download the video ! i have seen many apps doing the same but I searched the whole google but i do not find anything that targets most of the platforms except the youtube-dl library.I thought that the others apps are using that library also they are also checking for the you-tube video and prompting user that youtbe vdeio cannot be downlaod . what are your suggestions that they are also using the youtube-dl? i am giving a reference app link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=video.downloader.videodownloader&pcampaignid=web_share .It will be great help for me If you tell me that are they using the youtube-dl library. |
Always glad to help, i think this is good idea, i have no any suggestions, i tell you more, few times, before this was automated in play market, my app was in production with working youtube and when i upload update also with youtube, it was detected and only update was rejected, but app still was in production available. P.S. Once i created youtube video with process of anime downloading and uploaded to youtube and got strike very fast :-) |
O, finally i am understand meaning of downloader apps with link only, i wish you good luck!!! as i know all using youtube-dl or youtube-dlp, but on backend, my vision of such apps is different, having ability to download from private social media groups or premium content or content when you need to login should be but this is impossible for apps with download link only, for example you cant download 22-th episode of anime X in player Y, if link same for different episodes |
I understand but I’m not considering all the video platforms i’m just
targeting few like insta facebook dailymotion snack video vimeo and other
such type of platforms only They all have unique id in theri links.

that the others apps are using that library also they are also checking for
the you-tube video and prompting user that youtbe vdeio cannot be downlaod

Thanks for clearing that most of the downloading apps are using youtube-dl
for downloading videos
But they are using this library with consequences like (for example video
cannot be downloaded from youtube) . I will take care for this type of
platform using this library.

Off course, Goggle Play always removes actually good app and games. And left many fake apps untouched. It's crazy. That's why I get my favorite apps and games from outside playsl store. |
I believe the key here is to avoid allowing YouTube downloading at all costs. We could use the library, but only for safe sites. If we do this, Google shouldn't raise any issues. Am I right? |
Based on my experience, looks like yes, you are, there is no another info |
what about publishing it on F-Droid instead? |
Yes, i've planned to publish it on F-droid, but little bit latter, some configs must be implemented(i think it will be done in next month) |
I saw that your app was removed from Google Play. What is the reason?
Thanks
