I've read a couple of articles recently regarding Google's moved to verified apps and their "removel" or reduction of side loading apps. Is this something that ai2 will integrate in some way?
Are you referring to this?
Yes
Probably too early to say how this will impact AppInventor and its multitude of creators.
I just thought i'd bring it up to flag it up, so to speak. All my apps are for personal use but I'd prefer it wasn't restricted. Also hoping it's not a big cash grab by Google!
Yes, we are aware of the change and thinking about potential alternatives. Obviously, whatever gets implemented will be heavily influenced by the direction Google takes.

Next year, Google will implement stricter regulations in several countries. How will platforms like you respond to this? Will it still be commercially viable?

My question is, on page 22 of the Play Console, there’s a snippet that needs to be copied and added to the APK’s assets folder. How do I add the assets folder to?
I hope staff sees this and responds, as this needs to be addressed.
