Google's app store is encountering an issue on Android devices that's hampering user experiences.

Chinese AI lab DeepSeek's Android app has taken the No. 1 spot on the Google Play Store, days after the chatbot app clinched the top spot on the App Store.

DeepSeek app hits the top spot in the Google Play Store after conquering the Apple App Store as AI fans flock to try out the new LLM.

AI became a hot topic. Its influence even bled into the Google Play security division, which used AI in 92% of app security reviews.

We’re talking permission abuse, which has always been a serious threat to users. A new report is just the latest “alarming” wake-up call, “uncovering alarming security and privacy concerns.” This latest research has also exposed “hardcoded secrets embedded within some apps… which poses a serious risk of unauthorized access and data breaches.”

Google has already announced a security-checking Google Play VPN badge system two times now, but it's here to announce it again.

If you search for TikTok on the App Store, you’ll see a message saying, “TikTok and other ByteDance apps are not available in the country or region you’re in,” while Google Play says, “Downloads for this app are paused due to current US legal requirements.”

The TikTok app is still not available in Google Play or Apple's App Store despite Trump's order halting the ban. Here's what's happening.

DeepSeek has reportedly disappeared from Italy's Apple App Store and Google Play Store, with the disappearance starting on Wednesday, January 29, 2025. The block came a day after the country's data watchdog, the Garante, filed a privacy complaint asking for clarification on how the ChatGPT rival handles users' personal data.

It seems that the possibility of downloading a malicious app from the Google Play Store has once again been reduced. Google has announced a new verification badge for VPN apps, helping users distinguish secure and trustworthy applications from the vast selection available on the Play Store.
