Thanks for sharing. So screw the Play Store then. I wonder how long this can continue. At some point, one of those big walled garden providers will run head-on into EU law with this kind of behaviour. If you hold control over a significant part of a market, the law will eventually ( and hopefully) step in and prevent you from playing God.

I wonder if the app store or play store will ever be considered to have control over a significant part though. I imagine Apple would argue nope on the grounds of smaller market share/install base, Google on the grounds of a smaller revenue share.

The Play Store is not a walled garden - you can easily install apps on your phone without it (unlike the Apple Store, which is, and where you can't).
