Blocked by play protect [HELP EXPERTS]

[Partepechos]

Hello colleagues, I have a problem: I have an APK hosted in my hosting, I distribute it with pop traffic and so I get installs, the problem is that my apk ends up being blocked by google play protect as malware, I would like to know why it detects it or What is it? the apk only has sms permissions, does not do anything else, and because of this I have to generate a new apk with different package and signature, and it lasts about 1-3 days, and it's always the same process, someone can help me ?

I believe it could be some old outdated library that your apk is using.
Maybe they found from vulnerability in the past and now they are not acceptable..

There could be a lot of reasons
you can drop me a PM if you want and we could figure it out
I am also in the process of a battle with Google.
Let me know

Yes, because i want to move out store, is better if you know how to do it and what are you doing

 

[LegendAndroidX]

Yes , it's already a safe way to promote that kind of apps, i prefer a stable 200$ per day using a source outside of the google store than 4k$ a day and it be suspanded at the end

what type of popup company you're using ?

It is the same thing!

probably with 200$ stable outside google you will have a peace of mind but the struggle will never end.
the best approach is to do both like any other business
not all eggs in one basket
but no matter how much you lie to yourself there is nothing that will bring you that much traffic other than google play and I have been doing some reading about this play protect thing.::
Somehow they warn the user about the app before installing, the only thing I can think of is the keystore..

So finally even if you move out of Google play they will always be after you..
The moral of the story is to spam and spam and spam..

I will take 4k a day any day rather than 200$ a day.
The trick to it is to not dream and think you can sustain it.

I am trying to figure this problem out as a friend of mine told me about this and I did not pay attention to it.
I thought his app was getting flagged by antivirus.

I have a question for you ?
Did you ever publish apps or games to the google play store before ?
Were you banned ?

I need more info to help you out!

Automate creation of the APKs, find a way to create a new set of APKs every 4-6 hours and rotate them. Delete day old ones and always change up your keystores/etc.
