Hello all,

To be clear, AppYet doesn't use "Loan Download SDK", The real problem (https://tinyurl.com/jcu5umm3) was AppYet v4 template used a very popular AgentWeb (https://github.com/Justson/AgentWeb) library from GitHub, which contain a dependency Downloader (https://github.com/Justson/Downloader) to handle WebView download automatically.

AppYet uses Downloader in WebView, it doesn't mean apps created by AppYet "allow download or install applications from unknown sources outside of Google Play", we believe for almost all apps created by AppYet v4 template, this is a false positive, you should submit an appeal to get your app status restored.

Steps to submit an appeal:

1. Go to Google Play Console, open Suspended App, click on Appeal

View attachment 2107


2. In Appeal you could explain similarly as following
-----------
Hello,

[Your App Name] doesn't use Loan Download SDK, nor app contains code to allow download or install applications from unknown sources outside of Google Play.

It appears this suspension was caused by [Your App Name] used a very popular AgentWeb (https://github.com/Justson/AgentWeb) library from GitHub, which contain a dependency Downloader (https://github.com/Justson/Downloader) to handle WebView download automatically

Although [Your App Name] contains the Downloader library to handle WebView download automatically, [Your App Name] doesn't have the functionality to allow download or install applications from unknown sources. I believe the non-compliant issue is a false positive.

Also, [Your App Name] has removed Downloader library from the latest development version and ready to publish as soon as App status is restored

Please kindly restore app status.

Thank you,
-----------

3. Wait for Google Play support email reply (could take weeks) to tell you "we have conditionally accepted your appeal"
4. After Appeal Accepted:

- Go to AppYet.com, open your application, go to "Build" tab, then "Submit to Build" and download latest APK file
- Go to Google Play Developer Console->"Production"->"Create New Release" (If you have any pending release, it will show "Edit Release" instead of "Create New Release", if so, please "Discard Release" first), upload latest APK file. After upload latest apk, click on "Save" button at bottom right corner, then click on "Preview Release" at bottom right corner, then click on "Start rollout to Production" button at bottom right corner.
- Go to Google Play Developer Console->"Publishing overview"->"Send for review"

I believe this issue must be taken very seriously. If the current problems are not fixed, many developers will abandon the platform because we are losing our apps on Google Play. We really need an official solution and updated templates as soon as possible, otherwise we risk losing all our applications. @appyet
