Note: If you don’t want to deal with stuff like this, I recommend you download and use it from F-Droid client or Accrescent AppStore.

Update: The app returned to the App Store.

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.
