I might have my facts incorrect here but if an App is removed from the Play / iOS app stores isn't it removed from users devices? What happens to any money you put into those apps? Technically speaking, Google does have this capability to remotely wipe apps from devices [1], but they only do it when the app constitutes a security threat (i.e. malware) to users who were tricked into installing it. As far as I know, they've only done it twice ever [2]. iOS also has this capability [3], and similarly has not done it often (someone correct me if I'm wrong, I'm only an occasional iOS user).
