Due to the boycott of the Chinese app, the very popular Mitron app may return to the Google Play Store in a short time.

New Delhi: Due to the boycott of the Chinese app, the very popular Mitron app may return to the Google Play Store in a short time. Recently, Google abruptly removed the app from the Play Store, citing policy violations.

In his blog post, Sameer Samat, vice president of Android and Google Play, said that Google is working with developers to resolve technical issues and re-launch the app without naming the Mitron app.

Mitron appMitron app Mitron was seen as an Indian alternative to TikTok. As a result, more than 5 million downloads were made to the Google Play Store in less than a month.

In fact, in the midst of a campaign to boycott the Chinese app, Mitron was considered an Indian app, so people were downloading it, but later found out that it was a rebranded version of a Pakistani app.

"We have asked the developer to make some improvements, the app may return to the Play Store as soon as it is implemented," said Sameer Samat, hinting at the return of Mitron in his blog.

Remove China AppsRemove China AppsLike 'Mitron', Google has also removed 'Remove China Apps' from the Play Store, which helps in deleting Chinese apps. Retrieval of this app is not possible at this time.

In his blog, Sameer clarified that an app that targets other apps cannot be placed on the Play Store. "We have recently removed many apps for violating the policies," he wrote.

We do not allow apps that encourage users to remove or disable third-party apps or modify device settings or features unless they are part of an authorized security service.
