Russia orders state-backed app, WhatsApp rival, to be pre-installed on all phones and tablets
Synopsis Russia will require MAX, a state-backed messaging app, on all mobile phones and tablets from next month. This decision follows restrictions on WhatsApp and Telegram. The government seeks greater control over the internet. RuStore will also be pre-installed on all Apple devices. LIME HD TV, a Russian TV app, will be pre-installed on smart TVs from next year. Reuters A Russian state-backed messenger application cast as a rival to WhatsApp which critics have said could be used for surveillance purposes must be pre-installed on all mobile phones and tablets from next month, the Russian government said on Thursday. The decision to promote the popularity of MAX, the new state-controlled messaging app, comes after Russia restricted some calls on WhatsApp, owned by Meta Platforms META.O, and on Telegram, accusing the foreign-owned platforms of failing to share information with law enforcement in fraud and terrorism cases. The government, which is seeking greater control over the internet space, said in a statement on Thursday that MAX, which will be integrated with government services, would be on the list of mandatory pre-installed apps on all "gadgets", including mobile phones and tablets, sold in Russia from September 1. It will also be mandatory from the same date for Russia's domestic app store, RuStore, currently pre-installed on all Android devices, to be pre-installed on all Apple devices, the government said. An online Russian-language TV app called LIME HD TV, which allows people to watch Russian state TV channels for free, will be pre-installed on all smart TVs sold in Russia from January 1 next year, the government added.
