Probably the map has 18+ places and no decent way to stop children from seeing them?
That would mean EVERY map app would be in violation since those places exist and are indexed by all of them. Including Google Maps.
Are those apps available through the Families program as safe for kids?
No idea, is Google Maps listed as being safe for kids? It even has a default built-in search option to find nearby bars.
Either way, they removed the app from the entire Play Store, not just from kids accounts, or family sharing. Google specifically has as a separate account type for kids, ostensibly for the exact scenario they seem to be claiming is the reason for the removal here.
You really trust a company(google) who warns users about malware from apks(non-google).. and then hosts plenty of unchecked malware in their own store. Im sick of this shit. I have my own friends distrusting me because of what google is telling them.
Aren't they hidden by default in Google Maps?
No.... Google maps even has a quick search for bars built in.
"I love looking at the 3D building of this place. I am about to ejaculate in my pants"
Some buildings may be too sexy!
The app showed me a skyscraper and now I feel inadequate.
All buildings are beautiful!
I don't know if Google has some API to indicate when the app runs from a child/family link managed account?
If so, then I suppose the Organic Maps dev could block some building categories from showing up (ex: Bars, Stripclub)?
