Google Play has delisted UpScrolled, the “censorship-resistant” social media app founded by Issam Hijazi, following its rapid growth to over 2.5 million users and its brief stint as a top-ranked alternative to TikTok.
While the app remains available for existing users, Google has not provided a specific reason for the removal; UpScrolled’s team confirmed they are working with the Play Store for reinstatement while maintaining their commitment to unfiltered content.
This development follows the app’s rapid ascent in popularity, particularly amid concerns over content moderation on competing platforms like TikTok.
When this happens I’m flashing graphene os onto my pixel 9
u should do that anyway, it’s so nice to not feel watched while typing
Do it now, use obtainium, droidfy and aurora. Nearly every app works except google wallet.
My only problem stopping me is I use my phone for work too. Microsoft auth, outlook. Mostly just auth. I was looking it up a bit ago and people said it breaks it for work accounts
The MS auth I need for a work VPN has been set up to call my phone instead, letting me sign in by tapping the # button after answering the phone call from MS.
Not a good idea to mix personal and work devices. I’d recommend getting a cheap budget phone to use for work.
Or ask your work to give you a phone?
My company insists on spyware for my phone, so I insist they give me a phone for work stuff. I leave it off in a drawer at home when I’m not on call.
I’d recommend demanding work getting a cheap budget phone.
If they require you have work software they can provide the hardware to run it.
Your phone is your phone.
I currently use MS Auth on my Graphene OS phone. Have installed Play Services on that profile, though
