There is no denying that smartphones help us a lot every day, but we cannot deny that they are used to spread false information. That, in the case of disease, is a very serious risk.
So Google has decided to limit search results to its app store, so that no people try to profit from the epidemic.
Does Google test coronavirus in the Play Store?
In the last hours, any word related to coronavirus or covid 19 has spread to the Google Play store. Error or preventive thinking?
Due to this organization we have decided to contact Google Spain to give us an explanation of why the search results were actually removed. We already know: they were creating a special category.
New updated section
This new category includes really useful apps if you want to get the details of the disease, and programs that are just trying to make a profit from it will not appear.
Both on the Google Play Store website and in the app you will have a small image that will give you access to this category as search is still restricted.
According to the Android Police, this category varies from country to country, something that makes sense when we understand that there will be applications that help the population, and each government will have its own, in addition to the language differences.
However, this review may take some time to arrive. In my case I have it running on the website but it has not yet come from the app I use on my Android phone.
