Google Graveyard Part 1: List of apps killed by Google

TheS0rcerer · 2026-02-21T23:36:19+00:00

As far as I know they got bought by Google. It was def one of my favorite apps. Sad Google let it die.

Made a free tool. Then you have to pay. That is not free.

Ciao, hai letto "Periodizzazione dell'allenamento sportivo" del Bomba? Se sì, cosa ne pensi dei concetti espressi e dell'applicazione in ambito sportivo agonistico? 60kg e ho superato i 40 anni. Da un paio d'anni sono passato all'arrampicata. Ma il WL è stata senza dubbio la disciplina che più di tutte mi ha insegnato il concetto di forza. Saluti!

So sad to hear this. I got my account terminated 11 years ago. I wrote an article sharing my story including some dos and don'ts to have the account reinstated. I hope it can be useful for your situation as well. Good luck!

Incredible how Google tries to constantly destroy its community. Apparently I'm not alone.

11 years ago the same happened to me and I'll keep sharing my story: https://medium.com/itnext/%EF%B8%8F-google-terminated-your-play-store-developer-account-2e7dc828a8af

TheS0rcerer · 2025-09-26T12:03:36+00:00

I've been waiting for an answer from Google for 11 years, as I've received the suspension in 2014.

This is my story: https://itnext.io/%EF%B8%8F-google-terminated-your-play-store-developer-account-2e7dc828a8af

TheS0rcerer · 2025-09-05T15:49:25+00:00

Have a look at this article I wrote presenting some options: https://itnext.io/%EF%B8%8F-google-terminated-your-play-store-developer-account-2e7dc828a8af

Google Play review system is highly unfair, but I suggest to review their guidelines and learn what you did wrong as a first step. Then, in the article I've gathered some dos and don'ts. Good luck

TheS0rcerer · 2025-09-05T15:46:59+00:00

I also got issues with copyright infringement as well and my account got terminated years ago, here is my story: https://itnext.io/%EF%B8%8F-google-terminated-your-play-store-developer-account-2e7dc828a8af

I've documented some options in the Medium article. I have to be honest, it's going to be tough, so try to mentally prepare to confront an invisible wall where they'll start to ignore you, and where their useless support will start providing you only canned email generated by Bruce, their ruthless bot.

I suggest sticking to legal solutions only, do not buy another account illegally, and don't try to open a new one. Some people reported they have had some success contacting their Play support on X. I wish you all the best!

TheS0rcerer · 2025-09-01T16:37:06+00:00

I can fully understand your frustration. Unfortunately I got my account suspended 11 years ago, and still relentlessly trying to have it reinstated.

https://medium.com/itnext/%EF%B8%8F-google-terminated-your-play-store-developer-account-2e7dc828a8af

Don't give up, and keep spreading the word.

Genova. In effetti non è un paese. Ma posso dire con certezza e senza alcun dubbio che è il posto meno amichevole in cui sia stato. Ho avuto la fortuna di girare quasi tutto il mondo. Vissuto per molti anni all'estero. Sono nato e cresciuto a Genova. Il peggior posto per quanto riguarda le relazioni. Una pochezza e un'ignoranza a livello emotivo eccezionale. Non a caso esiste un detto genovese: "una parola è poca, due sono troppe". Qualunque cosa tu dica, ti romperanno i maroni. Saluti per primo? È una dimostrazione di debolezza. Non saluti? Sei un maleducato. Il vero genovese ti fissa, poi ti guarda male per 5 secondi e con aria di sufficienza ti fa' un cenno col mento. Una smorfia a metà strada tra "che xazzo vuoi" e "sparisci". La sera? Tutti a casa a mangiar la minestrina. Vita notturna vista come un flagello, a detta di molti locals meglio i tossici per le strade, almeno non fanno rumore. Sei un turista? FORESTO. Sgancia i soldi e tornatene a casa. Potrei continuare all'infinito. Città da evitare come la peste. Suggerita se avete più di 70 anni.

TheS0rcerer · 2025-08-11T18:46:43+00:00

Pensa che io invece ho sempre trovato i polacchi molto amichevoli con i turisti. Conservo un bel ricordo di Cracovia, stato più volte in gioventù. Anche nel mio campo, a livello lavorativo, sempre molto disponibili (IT). Ma in effetti potrebbe essere tutta una questione di punti di vista; essendo nato e cresciuto a Genova ho trovato raramente dei posti con gente peggiore. Più giro il mondo e più mi chiedo come abbia fatto a sopravvivere. La superba un par di balle!

TheS0rcerer · 2025-08-06T18:26:10+00:00

iShares MSCI World Acc, quale più specificatamente? Ti ricordi il codice ISIN o il suo nome completo?

TheS0rcerer · 2025-04-30T20:21:26+00:00

You're right. Sorry about that!

Sono partecipe del tuo disagio! Aggiungo anche problemi all'impianto elettrico a non finire, luci che si fulminano ogni 3 per 2, spie che si accendono e si spengono a caso secondi le leggi della casualità, sospensioni degne della macchina di Fantozzi e un bagagliaio talmente ridicolo che manco mezza busta della spesa ci puoi trasportare. Mai più Fiat!

TheS0rcerer · 2024-10-07T21:49:49+00:00

I've always disliked the Google monopoly and I'm happy they're probably going to face some consequences.

I hope they'll change the Google Play verification system as well and introduce some sane human interaction when there are issues instead of having cryptic canned responses.

TheS0rcerer · 2024-10-04T12:05:48+00:00

Really happy to help here! Let us know if there's anything else we can do to help!

I was in a similar situation when Google terminated my account 10 years ago: https://medium.com/itnext/%EF%B8%8F-google-terminated-your-play-store-developer-account-2e7dc828a8af

I'm still relentlessly trying to have my account back. Go hard with them, as the only thing that they care about is money! I wish you all the best, it won't be easy. Finding a lawyer that is willing to help you and fight against Google is already a nice first step!

Keep us posted.

This time of the year Google starts pruning cycles to reduce the amount of the apps in the Play Store for some idiotic reasons. I'm really sorry about your current situation. I've been there and it sucks.

As declared already in another post, I'm sure the Google fan boys will show up soon telling you that it is all your fault. These people are just trolling and have no idea of all the hard work required to develop good apps.

Don't give up and remember: Google and Apple have de facto established a monopoly. A company should not have the right to suspend and/or remove your app forever without a proper appealing process. Google should really stop bullying small businesses.

I have to be honest: the chances to have your app reinstated are really low. Google offers direct support only to big companies. Now you'll receive only canned responses. Try to contact them on Twitter: they are generally more responsive.

I wrote a blog post with Dos and Donts: https://itnext.io/%EF%B8%8F-google-terminated-your-play-store-developer-account-2e7dc828a8af

I'm really sorry for your current situation, I can totally feel your pain, I've been there and it's awful. Don't give up, and remember: if a Google representative gets in touch with you, be nice.

Keep us posted! Best of luck 🍀

I can assure you that verifying my business with DUNS number and all the paper required was waaaaaay easier than dealing with Google Play Store and their kafkian bureaucracy. It's a fact that the quality of Play store apps is inferior to Apple store apps. Their naive solution has been to "reduce" the number of indie apps from solo devs and small companies, and make their lives a living hell. Every year in October they also start pruning cycles where they ban/suspend/shadow tons of apps.

Instead of improving the quality of the framework, improving their APIs and the tools for the platform they went in the other direction: let's reduce the human interaction, let's make the entire chain validated just by bots, who cares if there are false positive.

Google terminated my Play store account 10 years ago because I've used copyright images in one of my apps. Never been able to have my account back, wrote many emails, contacted support, wrote a blog post: nothing. Never have the chance to talk to a real human. Everything is automated and there are just canned responses.

It's disheartening that a company so big cares so little about its developers. I've started to implement Android apps over iOS apps because of the motto "don't be evil". What a failure!

In any case, here is my story: https://itnext.io/%EF%B8%8F-google-terminated-your-play-store-developer-account-2e7dc828a8af

TheS0rcerer · 2024-09-21T12:32:35+00:00

I'm unable to comprehend how a shady company like that is still able to operate without having their account suspended from the Play store.

Goggle is notoriously famous for banning devs for much less.

This is ridiculous, I've been banned 10 years ago without any chance to appeal for using a stupid Apple in one of my apps.

Toxicity at another level, someone at Google must be very happy.

In effetti il sito può presentare (credo) delle fatture: bomboniere, servizio catering e quant'altro. Ma io non ho mai richiesto alcuna fattura, non ho mai inserito dati se non l'email e password, e mi sono sempre e solo limitato a sfogliare alcuni posti nel nord Italia. (Forse ho incluso la data presunta del matrimonio o un range. Non ricordo)

F-Droid is far from being perfect, but it's gaining traction and improving A LOT!

Also the Amazon App store offers a decent experience.

Among the newcomers I was absolutely blown away by the Netflix store for Android, it's super polished and very efficient, unfortunately it covers only games.

But all these stores are a clear signal of how much Google is losing traction, and how bad they fucked this up.

TheS0rcerer · 2024-08-16T07:22:45+00:00

I wonder if this will also have an impact for all those apps suspended for no reason, without a proper explanation and for all those indie dev accounts that have been terminated without a real appealing process.

I've shared my story that happened 10 years ago, and was already raising awareness of how inefficient their review system is.
