Pixalate's June 2025 Delisted Mobile Apps Reports: 46,331 Apps Delisted from Google Play Store & 45,685 from Apple App Store
London, July 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pixalate , the leading ad fraud protection, privacy, and compliance analytics platform, today released the June 2025 Delisted Mobile Apps Reports for the United States (U.S.) Apple App Store and Google Play Store . The reports analyze apps delisted in June, including those enabled for programmatic advertising. The reports include a list of the top delisted apps by app store, enabled for programmatic advertising (based on the presence of an app-ads.txt file).
The report identifies applications that are no longer available for download from the U.S. Apple App Store and Google Play Store, according to Pixalate's data. Delisted apps do not indicate which party initiated the delisting action, i.e., Apple, Google, or the app developer.
While some apps are delisted for benign reasons, others are removed due to more nefarious behaviors, including ad fraud and non-compliance with privacy regulations or app store policies, which may expose advertisers to potential financial or legal risks. Because apps can be delisted for various reasons, Pixalate neither asserts nor assigns a reason for any delisting action. Additionally, it is generally not publicly available information as to who the initiator of the delisting is, so it is often not possible to know whether the app store or the developer triggered the removal.
Pixalate's research focuses on app profile information. It provides various insights observed in the programmatic advertising bid stream, such as the developer's country of registry, the level of app abandonment, and the number of delisted apps with advertising (as indicated by an app-ads.txt file).

This Lenovo 8.7″ Tablet Now Costs Less Than AirPods Pro Ahead of Back-to-School, 4.8-Star Android Tablet
Big phones are fine for quick scrolling, but reading comics, handing a device to a kid, or streaming a show on the couch all feel better on a real tablet. The Lenovo Tab One 8.7″ Tablet 64GB is built exactly for that kind of everyday use. It is small enough to toss in a backpack, big enough to make videos and ebooks comfortable, and simple enough that the whole family can figure it out without a tutorial. Head over to Best Buy to get the Lenovo Tab One 8.7″ Tablet 64GB for just $110, down from its usual price of $150. That's a discount of $40 and 27% off. See at Best Buy The 8.7 inch screen hits a nice middle ground. It is larger than a phone, so your eyes get a break during long reads, but still compact enough to hold one handed while you stir a pot or ride the bus. Colors look lively for cartoons and sports highlights, and the size is perfect for split screen notes next to a lecture video. Front and rear cameras handle quick video calls and snapshots of homework, and the built in microphones pick up voices clearly without forcing you to shout. Storage starts at 64 gigabytes, which is plenty of room for a healthy mix of apps, offline playlists, and a few movies for flights. If you ever run short, a microSD slot lets you bump the space without paying for a more expensive model. The tablet runs a clean version of Android, so you can grab your usual apps from the Play Store, set up profiles for family members, and use built in parental controls to limit screen time or lock down purchases. That makes it a friendly pick for parents who want a shared couch device that still respects boundaries. Battery life is the quiet hero. You can stream, browse, and read for hours, then plug in for a quick top up with a standard USB-C cable. Wi Fi handles fast downloads and smooth streaming on home networks or campus hotspots, while Bluetooth makes it easy to pair wireless earbuds for late night viewing. The plastic back resists fingerprints and scratches, which is a relief if you plan to skip the case to save weight. If you have been hunting for a budget tablet that covers entertainment, light work, and kid duty without turning into another pricey gadget to babysit, this checks the right boxes. The Lenovo Tab One 8.7″ Tablet 64GB is still available for $110 at Best Buy, a clear savings over its regular $150 list price. See at Best Buy

Women are anonymously spilling tea about men in their cities on viral app
When Cid Walker opens the Tea app, she's greeted by a barrage of posts about men and their apparent "red" and "green" "flags." 'He's a cheater,' Walker said, reading some of the comments on one post out loud. "What clubs does he go to?" another person asked on a different post. "He's cute." The app, which appears to have been advertising itself online since at least last fall, allows users to solicit feedback about specific men they're dating. Walker, 22, is among the 4 million users on the women-only safety app, which this week became the No. 1 free app in the Apple App Store. It picked up viral traction in the last month after some people began talking about it online on Reddit and TikTok. The app gained more than 900,000 new signups in the last few days, Tea said on social media. Getting off the waitlist can now take days, an inconvenience many new users complained about in comments on the app's Instagram posts. Upon opening Tea, users are presented with local men whose photos have been uploaded, along with their first names. For each of the men, other women on the app can report whether they deem him a 'red flag' or a 'green flag' and leave comments about him, such as those recounting negative date experiences or vouching for him as a friend. 'I've seen so many people I know on the app, it's crazy,' said Walker, a Cleveland-area user who joined the app last week after having seen multiple viral posts about it. 'Like, oh my God, I would never think all this stuff about them.' App users can look up individual names in the search bar or create custom alerts for specific men. The app also offers functions that let users run background checks, search for criminal histories and reverse-search photos to check whether a man is catfishing by using someone else's photos on his dating profile. The woman-only app was created by a man, Sean Cook, who said on Tea's website that he was inspired after he watched his mother's 'terrifying experience with online dating,' including being catfished and unknowingly dating men with criminal records. Cook's profile on LinkedIn lists him as the founder of Tea since 2022. The description under his role says, 'Tea was self-funded by Sean.' Cook did not respond to a request for comment. A representative for Tea said the app isn't offering interviews at this time. Tea's mission mirrors similar efforts that have gained popularity in other online forums, such as 'Are We Dating The Same Guy?,' a Facebook community with millions of members across the country in localized offshoots. While the communities have stated that their mission is to keep women safe, they have also faced backlash from men online who say they fear being misrepresented or doxxed on the platforms. The Facebook groups, which advertise themselves as spaces for women to warn other women about 'liars, cheaters, abusers, or anyone who exhibits any type of toxic or dangerous behavior,' have for years been criticized online for devolving into places for gossip or for spreading possible misinformation about people. Last year, judges dismissed two defamation lawsuits filed in Illinois and California by men who were posted in the groups. With Tea, some men have posted in forums asking for others to report the app in hope of getting it shut down, and others have expressed interest in a men-only equivalent on which they could discuss and mock women. One app has already tried to offer that. The Teaborn app climbed to No. 3 in the free apps chart Wednesday before it disappeared from the App Store. Shortly ahead of its removal, the app had rolled out an update with 'enhanced content moderation and reporting tools' after its creator condemned users for allegedly sharing revenge porn on the platform. Teaborn told NBC News in a social media statement: 'Apple just removed us yesterday because Tea app doesn't like competition, but we are working to go back with a new brand!' Apple didn't respond to a request for comment. Despite finding apps like Tea entertaining, users like Walker have expressed discomfort with the idea of allowing so many people to anonymously speak negatively about others online. Signing up for Tea requires users to take selfies, which the app says are deleted after review, to prove they are women. All users who get accepted are anonymous outside of the usernames they choose. Screenshots are also blocked. On its website, Tea describes itself as 'more than an app; it's a sisterhood.' The app claims it donates 10% of its profits to the National Domestic Violence Hotline. A spokesperson for the hotline didn't immediately respond to a request for comment Thursday. 'Together, we're redefining modern dating,' the app says. Walker said that she has noticed many users focus more on gossip than real safety concerns but that she believes some people have found Tea useful for exposing serious issues like abuse. 'I feel like if people were to use the app how it's supposed to be used, this could actually save a lot of women from being hurt or harmed,' Walker said. 'But at this point, I think it's like a joke to everybody and just like cyberbullying.'
