Apple and Google are taking measures to prevent the spread of coronavirus misinformation from apps,according to a report from CNBC. Apple,for one,is rejecting all coronavirus-related mobile apps that aren't from the government or official health organizations,developers told the news organization. Google Play,meanwhile,is blocking all searches for coronavirus,though it's not clear if it's completely blocking app approvals,as well.
Apple is manually evaluating apps,looking at both who the developers are and where they got their data from. As such,some independent developers that use World Health Organization (WHO) data are being rejected because they're not recognized health institutions. One developer told CNBC that Apple rejected its coronavirus-related app,saying that "apps with information about current medical information need to be submitted by a recognized institution."
