Both of our favorite mobile monopoly members, Google and Apple, recently announced plans to remove outdated apps from their app stores. Last month, both companies decided to remove any app that had not been updated in two years. in early April, Google announced The two-year cutting plan will start in November and later this month Apple Email developers, by giving them 30 days’ notice to update or delete. It’s hard to know what two-year-old apps will look like, so how many apps are we talking about exactly?

Android users will always have alternative and alternative app stores, but Apple users will lose access to the removed apps.
