Important update: Update Pushwoosh SDK to keep the application in Google Play Store

[Image] Hi there, We have recently received numerous requests from our customers who use native Android SDK or one of the various cross-platform plugins in their app, complaining that Google has removed the application from the publication or gave a short-notice warning of non-compliance with the new privacy policy with similar justification: -- APK REQUIRES VALID PRIVACY POLICY Your app is uploading users’ installed application information via Pushwoosh SDK without hosting a privacy policy in both the designated field in the Play Developer Console and from within Play distributed app itself. APR REQUIRES PROMINENT DISCLOSURE We’ve identified that your app is using Pushwoosh SDK or library, which facilitates the transmission of collection of installed application information without meeting the prominent disclosure guidelines. If necessary, you can consult your SDK provider(s) for further information. --The policy referred is the new Google Developer program privacy policy that takes effect on May 31, 2021: [( The new policy concerns an analytical method implemented in legacy versions of SDK which was intended to track uninstallation of applications with Pushwoosh SDK installed on the device. However, this method was never used because we found a more universal, robust, and reliable way to detect the uninstallation of applications via the Silent Push capability. As soon as we got the information about the upcoming changes in the privacy policy, we promptly issued an update to our native SDK, corresponding plugins. We strongly recommend updating your app to use the latest version of Pushwoosh SDK and re-submit the APK for publication in the Google Play Store.Note that your app may be using SDKs from other vendors that may use similar analytics methods and trigger a similar message. In such case, please contact Google support for additional consultation. Please [let us know]( if you need any help with getting your application updated or if you have any questions regarding this matter. [Update your Pushwoosh SDK](   © 2021 Pushwoosh Inc.
