Google wants to add more RMG apps to the Play Store
Google says that its new policies will benefit developers globally by providing them with new business opportunities. The policies will also put a priority on user safety. Google plans to look out for users by requiring age-gating. The latter is a popup that asks the user to verify that he/she is an adult and is old enough to use the app. Developers will also use geo-gating to make sure that the apps are available only in areas where they are legal.
Google might be eager to get more RMG apps into the Play Store because it will be “evolving” its service fee model for RMG “to reflect the value Google Play provides and to help sustain the Android and Play ecosystems.” Google adds, “We are working closely with developers to ensure our new approach reflects the unique economics and various developer earning models of this industry.”
